Is the burner in my computer broken?

Check software and make sure verify only is not selected in the burn / copy options.

have you tried another dvd dc.it can happen if the dvd is faulty try another dvd if it is not working, try the nero dvd burner to burn the dvd.

I have the same problem with the burner Asus supplied with my laptop. Uninstall it and try this free burner: http://cdburnerxp.se/ It works like charm. Have fun! Dan

this might be because you have not selected the option to burn an audio cd or your burning software does not support audio burning
there are plenty of free burning software programs on the internet

hope this helps

ok..
what kind of application you use for burning??

try it again then double check if you really choose the right path of th drive you want to use as burner..

then you are sure that you burn the music as audio cd not data cd..as well as the video cd not data cd..

because if you burn data cd only computers can read that.. not your aplliances like for example your dvd player,cd,etc.

Use Ctrl-Alt-Del and use 'Task Manager': - Under the 'Applications' tab, you will find all the 'application' that are runnning. - Under the 'Processes' tab, you will find any processes that is running and if you sort the 'CPU' column by clicking on it, it will show any processes that is grabbing your computer resources.
In your case, I would suspect that you have 'AUTOPLAY' enabled and each time you insert a Music or DVD movies, it is trying to run a program like Media Player or DIVX player: if prompted, just tell your machine to do nothing or go into Windows Explorer.
Hope it helps.

how do i download installation drivers etc, for backpack cd-rewriter, model 194200, e/n 00239,series 6 driver

Hi:


I know exactly how you feel, since the lightscribe feature is great, but the lightscribe software is pc and not mac compatible, though the burner will work up til that point in the process on a mac.

I solved the problem by using an external dvd burner on a spare pc which will accommodate the installation software for lightscribe and burn and create and decorate the dvd.

I have yet to try a possible solution involving a Core Duo and combo Mac/PC Operating system since I still use an old iBook G4 to create videos but if your Macbook will accommodate both types of OS then you might try using the lightscribe software installation disk on your macbook in pc mode as a windows application.

Let me know if that works for you

My only suggestion is to borrow another burner if possible and see if you get the same error with with that one. This will be the simplest way to determine if you have a software problem or if your burner has a fault.

fr buy a new one
