Question about Imation (01932) CD-RW Burner
Im not able to burn dvd on my dvd dual layer writer, but it writes ordinary cd's. it writes dvd up to 17% and then stops saying "data error".i tried some 10 dvd's now but it burns only half and then stops... my system configuration is AMD duron 1.8ghz ram 256mb hard disk 80gb,7200rpm nero software(which i got with the burner) windows xp professional(the c drive has 8gb space totally) norton anti virus the dvd disk that i used is also imation (4.5gb i hope so) when i bought this dvd writer it was working and wrote some 15 dvd's properly,it took 30 minutes to write the dvd (now dvd disk from the same pack is not writing) ... i use an LG dvd reader together with the imation writer for "copying dvd" some one pls help me...i dont know what else is wrong... i tried re-installing the windows xp professional also,but then also it shows error.
You seem to have a related problem, you can't burn cd's and you cannot install windows without an error. Either your hard drive has a bad sector where it keeps trying to write the data or your dvd drive has a reading error. Firstly check your hard drive for errors, right click on your 'c' drive and down to properties, then click on tools tab, then error checking. This can take quite a while, so be patient. Secondly, there have been numerous updates from Nero especially related to Service Pack 2 so download the latest updates from their 'Ahead Nero' website, they are free as you are'nt upgrading just updating. Your ratings are important
