Answer:
Those types of errors can usually be attributed to one thing: The
burning engine Microsoft chose to include with Windows. It's poorly
written and buggy.

I mean, it gets the job done, sure! But compared to it's alternatives,
it's the inferior choice. What can you expect, though? The package
included with Windows is free.

I use Nero and recomend it as well.

If you'd still like to give Windows a chance, read this forum article:

Maybe you can find your answers there.
