The main problem I am getting has occurred ever since installing the
NEC DVD-RW drive and also changing the case at the same time.

Since then, the PC works fine, but when I try to burn DVD's the
computer is restarting at different points midway thorough the burn,
resulting in many "coasters". I have tried motherboard driver updates,
dvd burner updates, display updates, windows updates, firmware update
on the dvd burner, I even tried changing the program as I was
originally using Ulead Movie Factory. I tried installing a case fan, I
made she the CPU wasnt overclocked, updated my bios, virus scans and
spyware scans, with all threats successfully removed now and I just
dont know what else I can do. Can anyone help me at all??????

Many Thanks,

Darius Clarke.

PS I was reading another thread about running the driver verifier to
see if the driver that is causing the crash is highlighted next time
crash occurs, will update this thread when that happens. :)
 
And one last thing (I promise lol) this is a copy of the error as it
appears in Event Viewer:

I think I may have selected the wrong error code it should have been
this one :

The one error report I posted earlier was after I set the Verifier to
check all non-Microsoft Drivers. Sorry about that Cari :)
 
No its not set to either of those, but I tried a 3rd brand of blank
DVD's (the hp dvd+r 8x blanks) and I actually burned 2 dvd's
yesterday!! shocking huh? The brand I used before were FujiFlim White
Surface DVD-R 8x, and some other type of Fuji Film Silver DVD-R, so
brand may be the problem. Will test somemore this evening and see :)
Keep ya posted! Thanks for your help so far by the way.

Darius.
 
Don't think I've ever tried white surface DVDs. It may be that your DVD
burner just doesn't like that particuar brand of media. The ones I've used
are mainly a purple surface on the burning side and a silvery topside...
usually use Memorex. Only one single failure in four diferent DVD
burners... out of about 600+ burned using nearly every burning software you
can think of!!!
 
That sounds like a good success rate in anyones eyes, I will try to get
my hands on some of those Memorex CDs !!

On a downer, I had a perfect night of burning last night, and burned 5
movies, 3 music video mixes and today now I still had a few coasters
despite only using the purple and white covered hp DVD+R. It is
occuring spradically at different points of the burn, sometimes during
the transcode and conversion section and sometimes midway through the
burn itself. I also have emailed NEC and I still have had no reply. I
found another thread similiar to my problem and he hasnt resolved it
yet either:

http://groups.google.com/group/alt....cc6331e?q=nec+3500+ag&rnum=1#b94a44b8dcc6331e

See what you make of it Cari :)

Thanks a million,
Darius.
 
There are several NEC drives on that posting aren't there... that might be
an interesting fact to keep in mind. I've only ever had Pioneer drives (no
idea why I went for the first one, probably just because it was
cheap!)....A06, A08, A09.... as I upgrade my desktop they are moved to other
PCs down the line... and they're all still working fine. I do have to
confess tonight I burned a DVD that didn't quite do what I wanted.... 3
MPEG2 files... and I had them in the correct order, but when I'd burned
them, #3 became #1, #1 became #2 and #2 became #3.

So one Memorex DVD in the trash bin!!! I left it encoding one more time...
I should really go back and see what it's doing!
 
Its true maybe the problem might be the NEC drive itself, but now my
problems have taken a turn for the worse. My computer is actually
rebooting whilst doing normal tasks, such as surfing the net, saving
editing media, and so on. I tried deleting a lot of the background
programs to free up memory, and set the page file size to automatic.
Yet I would be simply browsing a web page and reading an article and
then blank screen and reboot. I am at a complete loss as to y this is
happening, and I now feel maybe the problem is not the drive, but some
kind of conflict in the system itself.
 
Right click on My Computer and select Properties...

click on the Advanced tab

Click on the Startup and Recovery icon marked Settings

UNCHECK the box marked "Automatically restart"

Next time, after it fails there should be a BlueScreen giving the exact
error text ....

Then we'll be able to investigate further:
