Default problems with burning music, writer or disc problems?

following on from my thread about a wonky cd writer i'm guessing the problem is with the drive, but has anyone else had this sort of problem? -

using nero or windows media copier, the copying fails when trying to write the 'lead out' or 'close disc' part of the process. it burns fine up until that point then fails

4 discs, same problem.

i'm going to try my mates computer to eliminate the drive as the problem, but has anyone had any problems with TDK cd-r80 discs off ebay recently or has anyone got any ideas with settings that might help?

haven't tried using a slower speed yet, but it's slow enough as it is TBH

Have you tried flashing the firmware on the drive? Normally some manufactured discs may not work properly unless you update the drives firmware.

Firmware can be had from here:

Could be dodgy (counterfeit) media. There is a lot of it around.
