    Looks like your PC has a 8X burner. All other specs look fine in terms of hardware. On to the software side of things...Sonic Record Now and Burn4Free you need to dump that crap for some more better & free things like DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink. Both of these programs are listed on this site under tools. You did not list the brand name of media you attempted to use. Get some good quality discs and life will be good.

    Happy Burning!

    Try a diiferent brand media. It could be your burner just does not like Phillips.
