Does this happen if you use the CD burner instead of the DVD?
As someone mentioned earlier, it could be RAM. I would recommend taking
your system apart or at least remove a stick of RAM then reseat it,
followed the by next stick of RAM. After the RAM, I would do the ribbon
cables, remove a plug only to plug it back in. Next would be your molies
(power plugs for your devices).
