hi,
i brought a teac wd50e some time ago and being that its a relabelled pioneer 105 i flashed it with 1.33 firmware (couple of months ago)

all has been fine until today turn on my pc and go to nero, and at 1%
it fails, tried several disks.

disks in question are data write yellow x4 and ive used about 40 so far with no problem.

just before nero fails the burn there is a ziiiiiiiippppp sound like its trying to access the disk.

i thought the laser must have died but it still plays dvds fine.

the pc has not been moved or banged and i burnt with it last night.....

what ya reckon people, is it fudged???

thx
Glen
