DVD Wtier problems

Hi There

I am currently having problems installing a DVD Writer in my PC.
I currently have a DVD Rom drive which is the D: drive and a CD Writer in drive :E.
However, I want to take out my CD Writer and change it with a DVD Writer. I have opened up my PC and tried this but I can't seem to get it working. My DVD Rom is set to Master. I set the DVD writer to slave and made sure all cables were plugged in properly. But when I booted up my PC it recognised the new Writer, but when I attemted to use Nero 6 to burn a music and a short movie to DVD, it then said...Burn failed, cant start disc at once. So something must be wrong. I plugged the Writer in exactly as the old one was, but it don't work. I then put the old one back and it worked fine. So what's wrong. My Writer is an NEC DVD R/RW+- ND-2500A. Someone please help me out with it. This happened on another DVD Writer I tried to install called an Optorite. Exactly the same happened and I even switched slave to master but to no avail, that's why I bought an NEC which says on Nero website that it is compatible with Nero.

PLEASE HELP.
My PC is a Tiny Pentium III
500 mhz processor
20 GB
128 MB


This is the log file when it fails on nero...

Registry Keys:

 

Set your DVD Writer to Master and your DVDROM to Slave, that should help. Writers prefer to be master.









Don't forget to change your jumpers btw, and your cable positions

 

make sure you are running the latest version of nero. i have an nec dvd burner and it works great.

 

i just got a pioneer 106d dvd-r and it is set as slave to my nec cd-r, and it started up and works great, maybe your burner is no good, or your using the wrong software, i use dvd shrink and it works awesome, haven't made one coaster. good luck!
