Micro Advantage 52/24/52 coasters

[Kelvin]

I am using the bundled Nero 5.5.9.16 with all default settings. With Fuji 700 meg. 48x media, Superlink sets the write speed at 52x, my simlation does fine, but then I get get this message during the burn "End of user area of this track"
Here's a paste from the log

This is with 647 megs of data, blank disk, start multisession, just an ordinary data disk, It'll say could not perform Endtrack, and then will write the leadin, leadout, and fail it writes data only about 25 secs, it is NOT readable in windows explorer(win98) I have sucesfully burned to Verbatim 4x rw media.
should I try at a slower speed, is the drive crap, am I doing something wrong in nero?
I appreciate any help somebody can give, my old Ricoh 4/4/20x with direct cd worked fine on this system.
this is the first attempt to write to highspeed media, the drive is new, but if I can't get it to work it has to go back by tommorow
Thanx!!!

update, I just burned a Nero CD Speed disk, at 52x with the "create data cd" tool. it took 2:29 it's error free according to CD Speed's Quality check
Maybe my problem is in Nero

I would try downloading the latest version of Nero from www.nero.com

I think multisession consumes some space, but I forget how much. Try the same burn with no multisession. Also lower your burn speed, just on principle.

I just finished burning the same data set @ 52x on this same Fuji media.
I updated Nero to v.5.5.10.42 (the latest), and I did it in TAO (no multisession) worked just fine, took 4:15 including leadin/leadout
I don't know what resolved it, I chose to do everything and then try a burn, instead of making more coasters.
Thanks for the help; and I guess I'll be keeping this drive

Suggest you get in the habit of burning DAO/98 or DAO unless you specifically want to leave a disc open.

[Kelvin]

one other question, do ya'll think that doing multisession was the problem, or something else, I'm new to Nero, so I'm not real familier with how it's supposed to work

[rdgrimes]

Multisession consumes more space, and adds overhead for each session. Leaving the disc open also takes more space.
