Hi!

First of all, I have Windows XP, a HP 8100 CD-R drive (master of the 2nd IDE channel - with DMA on) and Asus A7 Pro motherboard.

I don't really know if it started to happen after I installed Windows XP's sp1, but now every time I try to continue a multisession CD-R in Nero there's a buffer underrun and some other errors when it begins. Only recording of blank CD-Rs work now.

Here's some info from the log:

Registry Keys:

That Vcool thing down there means that Vcool is running? And I thought I had removed it...

Also, is there a way, in XP, to upgrade the firmware of my drive to the hacked version 1.0n?
Thanx!
