      Unhappy TDK 440N (Multi) Unable to Burn DVD-R on XP

      My wife bought a TDK440N multi-format drive for me for Father's Day.
      Cool!

      I've burned DVD+RWs, DVD-RWs, CD-Rs, CD-RWs without a problem using Roxio EC6 and Nero (5.5.10.42).

      I recently tried to copy a DVD-R with had MP3 files on it.

      That's when the trouble began....
      Simply put both Roxio and Nero failed.
      "invalid field in command" was the message Nero provided.

      I can read DVD-Rs just fine.

      I've tried burning 3 different DVD-R medias ("generic", Memorex, and the actual blank TDK DVD-R which shipped with the unit).
      All had the same error.

      I tried copying direct and then also copying the MP3s to disk and burning from there. I've also created an image on disk and tried burning that.

      Always, the same error.

      I contacted TDK support.
      They had me flash 1.06 firmware.

      I've also removed Roxio in the meantime.

      Now when I try to burn, Nero completely locks up as soon as it gets to the initiate burn step (recall, this is in XP). I can't even Task Manager kill it.

      Apparently "a few" others are having this problem as well.
      I've tried the drive on a 98SE machine, but it (Nero) gives me a "drive not ready" message.

      TDK is actively looking into it.

      Any and all comments are welcome and will be appreciated.

      Have U tried other s/ware like RecordNowMax which IMHO burns DVD better

      OR

      DVD Decrypter which will ISO & burn your DVD

      OR

      Alcohol which does the same as Decrypter & can also copy on the fly.
