Hi
I bought a couple of 800MB cd-r 's from a shop. This is the first time i am trying to burn a 800MB capacity cd. Problem is Nero doesn't seem to support the media. My writer is a LG GLC-8525B with a maximum of 52x writing speed. Nero version is 6.3.0.2.
The media is branded as Amkette 24x 90 min (800MB)
What should i do? Any clues?

well as far as i know u have to enable overburn in ur software
it wont detect ur cd being 90 min .. u just have to select overburn .. and put in 90 min/ 800 mb of data in ..
there was a small discussion on this earlier
wait for i_w_m or JAK to answer .. i think one of them explained the whole thing

I already tried that option. After I click burn, the cd is ejected with the message:
There is not enough space to burn this compilation onto this disc. Please insert another disc that provides mor space. :roll:

You can change the default cd storage limit from File - Preferences - General by changing the markers' limits to 80 miniutes and then enebling overburning in the expert features.

Hmmm...

Select "No multi Session" and Burn with "DAO"mode(Disk at Once).... :wink:

and ya enable overburnin first like Theraven mentioned

u cannot over burn mutisession disks and/or use any other burnin mode(SAO or TAO) for overburnin..... :wink:

EDIT: Replaced Check --> Select

Thanks guys,
I just checked these cds at a friends place. He has an ASUS writer. Its the same story there. He was using different software to burn cds. Still it shows only 69 minutes 57 seconds as the capacity. I bought these cds for 11 rs. each. Guess I will just use them as regular cd-rs. :roll:

@raven,
Dont feel sorry about it. The main thing is you tried to help. Thats what matters :)

Did u do as i had suggested.....????

LG Burners support Overburning so do Asus burners.. :wink: Its all with the type of Burnin Proggy used..for eg. Nero supports Over Burnin while Easy CD Creator doesnt( dunno abt the latest version)


If u follow what I hav suggested above ..U will be able to easily OverBurn the disk usin NERO.... :wink:

JAK,
Yes, I did like u said. In fact I was using DAO (Disc at Once) mode to burn the cd. I even tried changing the Overburning option under preferences. That makes no difference. The cd is ejected and Nero asks for another CD with adequate space. :(

It also depends on the media. Not all CD-Rs will support overburning. Try it out with good brands like Moser Baer.

Na na ...U can overBurn with any CDR...the question is ...how much u can over-burn. Different media's have different lengths of the lead out area (90 sec is mandatory)
so u can always overburn in the lead out area..its just a question of how much

ofcourse u need a burner that supports O/B

sailendra said:
Yup, I selected no Multisession. Nero version is 6.3.0.2 (see my first post). Same result. :!:

Oh sorry missed readin it in a hurry...

Well what can I say....

what u have is a 52X newer model which definitely supports 90MIN CDR's..
I think u r doin something wrong...or maybe Nero has screwed up itself....... :wink:

One Last try...STEP By STEP Procedure Comin up.... :wink:
