sorry..im in the UK.. cheers..(nice picture)

Please could you point me in the right direction for the best prices..thanks

In the book type options it shows the drive as 'Optiarc DVD RW AD-7173A 1-01' The drive is labelled as a NEC ND7173 18x18 'label flash'. I havent a clue if i need to change the settings and what to as its not described as a NEC drive.

Thank you... Is this NEC ND7173 a good burner?, do i need to make any other changes in the settings? (boot type) etc

Hia I hope you guys can help me, im having real problems with the verifying stage of my back-up discs.. I have tried RiDisc, Datawrie Titanium and just Aone DL discs. Also I have changed my burner to a NEC 'Label Flash' drive today from a Philips 'Solid Burn' which i have seemed to have wasted my time doing that.. Sometimes the discs have worked but most of them have gone in the bin :-[ I am using the basic settings within Img burn..my PC is quite up to date running XP SP2 The problem always starts at 51-52%. part of the log as: I 16:37:38 ImgBurn Version 2.1.0.0 started!
