the repair will be as much as the new drive. Unless it is under warrenty, it won't be worth it, and even so, the transport cost is probably almost as much as the new drive

Did you install the DVD Decoder software that came with the DVD Burner?

I think it's a mechanical problem you are facing. Is your CD Burner able to read a CD contents?? If yes then there is some problem in writing head. Try to restart your machine and load again Nero see wheather it runs... Otherwise you have to call the Vendor for CD Burner to short out the mechanical problems

try uninstalling any software pertaining to the burner (add/remove programs) restart the pc and then reinstall the software required to run the burner. also, try using the 'add new hardware' option in your control panel.

It's very likely you CD drive has worn out or broke down. I would get a new one, you can get them very cheap, even a DVD burner drive. Try TigerDirect.

Check to see first if you have DVD burning software available on your system. If you do just follow the directions.

Reinstall your drivers go to start button, then click run and write devmgmt.msc in text box and then click Ok now check your dvd drive if it has any problems or if it even shows up if not the plug inside is probably loose.

if its new you could try re-installing it.  if its old maybe the laser is burned out.  maybe the dvd is not write-able.\nif you just bought it take it back to the store for an exchange.

Try restarting your computer. If the drive is removable, try taking it out and putting it in. Try going to device manager and making sure there are drivers installed for it. You can do this by going to start, right click on my computer, click properties, click hardware tab, then click the device manager button. Look for anything with an ! or ? icon. If there is one on the CD/DVD drive then it's a driver problem, easily fixed. I'd tell you where to get the driver if I knew the model of your computer.\n\nAnd if none of these work, it may be the drive fried or got disconnected from the board.

I can only tell you what how to trouble shoot\n\nFirst, you have to understand that burning a dvd is not an excact science.So try these steps\n\n1-Try to upgrade you software as best you can, to your specficic needs. Some software may not support some of the burners option with out additional upgrades. Be aware that some of these "upgrades" cost may cost you some cash.\n\n2-Up load the latest drivers for your hardware. Meaning goto the manufactures site for the latest device drivers etc.\n\n3-Double check the settings in you computer to see if it is set up right. Windows Me and Xp both have diffrient ways of setting up the burner. For Example in windows ME there were tabs in the properties of the device that let you set DMA options etc. Now in windows XP there are multiple tabs and check marks that let you check weather or not let this device be able to record to or not. So duoble check the settings no matter wich version of windows you have.\n\n4-Experiment a little you will find that using diffrient combinations of the software may solve your problem.\n\nFor example, I was using dvd shrink with nero burning but other dvd players could not read my copies. I ruturned the drive and still had problems burning. Well, I switch to Roxio and presto, my problem went away\n\n5-try using diffrient media types. Like DVD + to DVD- and try using diffrient brands also.\n\nIt will take some time to fix your problem but well worth it when things start run smoothly.
