ok the main reason im here at these forums is because i have had a lot of trouble trying to burn dvds.  Right now i have over 250 gigs of stuff i need to burn and i need to burn it as soon as possible.  Ive tried using nero, i keep getting the same error

Ive also tried to burn using nero to burn an image then trying to burn it in alcohol, but that doesnt work either

Try updating the firmware of your drive to the latest one.

I would also suggest Nero Burning Rom.
