Can't burn onto some discs

Toby28 · 01-13-2007, 10:01 PM

I'm trying to burn discs with Nero and for some reason it will only burn onto Sony or Memorex DVD-R discs. Verbatim, Packard Bell and others won't work which seems odd - I thought they were good names.

I have a Sony VAIO A215Z.

This is what the Nero error report said - would be great if someone could translate it for me! Thanks a lot.

disable the windows burning controller in services

try restarting the computer and see if it works

if that doesn't help, it could be a conflicting controller from another cd/dvd creation program that you have installed.

what other programs do you use to burn?

nero is EXTREMELY fussy about other burning services.

Toby28 · 01-13-2007, 11:14 PM

ok thanks - how do i disable that?

Toby28 · 01-13-2007, 11:15 PM

oh and i have sonic recordnow too.

brinky2006 · 01-14-2007, 01:05 AM

Try uninstalling Sonic. If you do wish to use this in the future, ensure that you make a backup of the software, or have an instalation file or disc.

Toby28 · 01-14-2007, 01:52 AM

thanks. i uninstalled both sets of burning software, then re-installed sonic recordnow. it still can't cope with the dvds i've just bought. Of the DVDs (-R) I have tried, my VAIO can only record onto sony or imation. so that would suggest that there is nothing wrong with the hardware (?) But is it nevertheless normal that a 2004 VAIO can only cope with very few types of DVD-R? If so it totally sucks and I keep wasting loads of money on all sorts of different DVDs!

Toby28 · 01-14-2007, 02:41 AM

another thought - and apologies for my ignorance - but would it be possible to somehow download another dvd driver? i have checked all the current driver settings which all appear ok from what i have seen from other posts but is there something i could download which would override the driver?

Of the DVDs (-R) I have tried, my VAIO can only record onto sony or imation. so that would suggest that there is nothing wrong with the hardware (?) But is it nevertheless normal that a 2004 VAIO can only cope with very few types of DVD-R? If so it totally sucks and I keep wasting loads of money on all sorts of different DVDs!
