Problem

When trying to write cd's with Roxio, nero , or clone
CD , i get error's when trying to run at max speed. If i
drop the write speed on clone CD to 4x it works sometimes
but not always. When i right click on a program i want to
write and send it to my CD-Writer it always fails. The
CDWriter came with the computer so i dont have any disks
that have drivers on it. ASSUMING the windows XP just
gave it a Default driver and causing the problem i have
looked at the systemax website , the artec website , and
the microsoft site, and many site advertised through
searchs. Running out of options. Anyone help?

Sound like i'm using the same discs and having similar problems.
managed a successful burn at 4x today but 12x always fails.
thought it was my pc and have reformatted to no avail so i now wonder
if discs are the problem
