Can anyone tell me why Nero will only allow my Sony burner to write at 2x when its a 4x burner? It recognizes it O.K and works fine but only at 2x speed and that the higest speed it will let me select in the settings. I'm running Nero 5.5.

Pull up the properties of you writer in Nero, look at the advanced options, my drive (Ricoh MP7163A) has Just Speed which when enabled only allows me to write at 12x even tho it's a 16x writer, uncheck the box and bingo.

did you know that nero monitors the burning preformace and will change spped in process if it needs to depeding on what you are burning. If you want different program try rixo 5(use to be cd creator)

Roxio/EZ CD Creator sucks

I don't know if this is a viable option, but I'd recommend getting a newer burner. They're insanely cheap now.

And check your media - maybe you've got some discs from ages ago.

Getting a new writer wouldn't be a bad idea! like FatBurger says, they're ridiculously cheap now! Heck you can get a 20x cheaper than I got my 16x for and it's only a couple of months old! DOH!
