Do you have programs running in the background of Windows? Virus scanners,
schedulers, or anything else? Shut them all down before trying to burn large
files. Even burners with buffer protection can screw up with these ruinning.
Have you checked to make sure you don't have any spyware running you don't
know about. Audio files are less likely to screw up since they burn in
smaller chunks, but larger files can bite the big one if the system is
interupted by a background program. Just a thought...

Try burning the CD's at a slower speed, in case there is some buffer
over-run.
I think I did try that once, but I will again just to be
certain.

It is also possible that the drive laser is starting to
fail It may be able to read the disks but not burn them. I have seen
this a number of times.
That seems unlikely, since it burns audio CDs with no
problems (as mentioned).

If your machine is a very old type, it is possible that the processor
is having difficulty with large sized file processing. This gets back
to the buffer over-run problem again.
It's a fairly new machine, running an AMD Athlon.

Your best bet is to try another drive.
Ouch!

Thanks for the help.
