Did it work before SP 3 was installed? If so uninstall the
beta software SP and try your burning programs again.

Using Windows XP with SP3

I have two CD drives.

E:\ is DVD-RW NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A
F:\ is DVD HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8162B

Neither one of these drives allow me to burn a CD
I have attempted to use Windows XP Roxio method as well as
Nero

Under Nero, I receive the following errors:

Session Fixation error
NEC DVD-RW ND 1300A could not preform fixation
Burn process failed@16X (2400KB/s)
Power calibration error
invalid write state
could not perform end track

Is it possible that there could be wrong information in my
registry under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CD
Burning\Drives?

I read the info from Microsoft Support and under Value
Data I am not sure whether it should have a 1 pr 2 in that
box. Is there any downloads that could assist me.
Really frustrated.

I know I cannot burn on the F: as this is a ROM

Thanks, hope I gave you enough information.
