I keep getting Power Calibration Area Error at 50% when I'm trying to burn a .dvd file. I did the google search, and I read the sticky here, and it's NOT because it's bad media. I'm using genuine Verbatim DVD+R DL discs, and I already wasted two. These discs are expensive, so I don't want to just continue to waste them. My burner is a Pioneer bdr-203 drive and I am burning at 2.4x speed on Windows 7 64bit. After getting the error the first time around, I updated my driver to the latest firmware, and tried again, and still getting this error. Does anyone know why this is happening? The BD-drive power is being shared by an SSD which is my boot drive, so I'm wondering if this might be a factor. Is it because I'm trying to burn at 2.4x instead of 4x?
