CD Media
It's definitely a media problem.
I had a philips burner that was REALLY picky about what it would write. No memorex, TDK or cheapies. Always generated a power calibration error with those types. I always found Philips CDRs to work (surprise, surprise!) otherwise Traxdata have never failed me. |
