... I guess that the stupid XP doesn't work very good with my mobo's nforce2 chip ... I have the newest drivers for the chip. ...
that would be my next question, but you have answered already;
nforce2 - it seems you are a fan of hardware beta testing;
next trys:
Have you disabled the native XP burning engine "IMAPI Service"?
Have you installed other burning software or a soft DVD player (eg PowerDVD) which carry a bad ASPI?
run the
ASPI Check , if it says you have installed an ASPI overwrite the current version with
ForceASPI's version;
change from DMA mode to PIO or inversely; or/and change the drive location (Master/Slave)
otherwise i have no ideas more
