"Bad medium detected" means that the CD is bad, or not capable of burning at fast speeds.

Have you tried burning at a slower speed, like 6x ?

Its Fujifilm CDs by the way. 16x seems to work usually, and 20 has worked a time or two.

Ok.. then its the CDs... because most only burn up to 16x. It usually says on the package when you buy them.

Update: Its possible that I had the wrong speed cds, but I bought a 50-pack of Memorex 24x CDs and I still didnt get a full burn. So I shut down, came back up, tried it again, still no burn.

You DO have the legit version of CDRWin, right ?

If youre talking about the cracked version, yes. The one that didnt work created a full cd (tracked) of hissing as if youd unplugged the sattelite/cable from your TV. I got that one fixed, and now itll burn about 70% and then kick out the original error. Weird thing is, I just tried burning a data cd with Nero and it burned fine but I did notice that the read buffer and the write buffer didnt stay as stable as they used to with the old burner (8x Sound Blaster, IDE). It took 6:31 to write 697mb to it.

Hmm im having the same problems with my 4x burner? Do u have Xp as a OS? I think that maybe Xp fucks it up!

Im running WindowsME. Nero works pretty good but you cant use cuesheets with it. That was my whole reason for using CDRWIN.

i see.. you sure you have a GOOD copy of cdrwin? mine works great..

if you want a copy, gimme a shout on ICQ.. or actually, i am jumping on IRC into #tranceaddict .. find me there..

Of course you can use cue sheets with Nero ! File -> Burn Image ... easy.
