CD burner is from MSI Model M8348

Thanks if you can help me:smokin:

Hi,
Not sure why it won't burn onto CD-R if it will burn to CD-Rw (it's usually the other way round if you're having problems)

Stick with Nero though (Its the best and has lots more features)

I'm sure ShOrD will come up with something to help ya out though.
Just don't dump Nero:rock:

Okey thanks I look for it!!!!:smokin:

Can you post where you got the CD Burner? I am not finding that model anywhere. Hopefully then I can help you better.

Okey!

Model is a MSI M8348 (maximal writing 48X)

this is the site: www.msi.com.tw

Thx!!!:smokin:

I haven't seen any real problems with this CD Burner. Words of advice: Use the Nero 5.5 that comes with the product. Also, whatever brand the cd-rw and cd-r are that came with it, stick with it. It generally works with the product.

I came across a couple of sites that might help you make the experience better and might even solve the problem with the CD-R.

Also, I have a burner program that might make the CD-R problem disappear. Here is the site: http://www.feurio.com/English/Download/

It is compatible with this CD Burner and I have heard good things with this software and hardware. Try it out.

If none of these suggestions work, I'm sure the Feurio software will. But if it also doesn't work let me know and I can ask a few people who are techie with CD Burners/Software.

Thanks man! I will send my friend a e-mail to see if it works and ofcourse I take a look on the site.

I let you know if it works:rock:

Sh0rD! That friend of mine has bought another burner it works not :lol: so he used that information about the sites not but I talked to him to look at those sites but he doesn't understand it maybe I look at his computer.
Be patient I let you knew futher!:cool:

sounds good have fun :D

The problem of the burner is solved.
That guy has windows XP again installed on his computer and I said to him look at the updates for your XP on the windows site (never looked before).........and yeah he can burn cd's like a crazy fool.

By the way thanks for your tips to help me.

Cheers
