Sounds weird, like bunk DVD-Rs or something.

I have the external version of that burner and use RecordNow Max and have never seen anything like that.

Disableing DMA is also a known fix for Sony burners.

What version of Record Now Max are you using? They had an upgrade on their website to go from any 3x/4x to 4.5 that's free. I had to upgrade mine to get it to work with my dru500a. Also you might want to clean off the original before making the .gi file.
