Yeah, seems to be a buffer underrun problem. I just don't get it - my computer stats: PIII 1gHz, 512 mb RAM, 40gb hard (apprx. 10 free), only one small program in the background. Come on! But as I said: 4x burn , no progs, lots of pray. That works out.

Are the CD's failing mid-burn with a buffer underrun? I don't know what the Danish error message would call it. Basically your computer isn't supplying data to the burner at the right pace, so you need to do whatever you can to facilitate that function - no screensaver, no activity, defrag your hard drive, shut down every task in your task list that you can get by without (a lot of them sit there polling various functions to see if they should do something). Obviously, faster computers, better burners, better hard disks and better software mean that it is quite possible to burn CDs while doing other things, but if you haven't got the right combination, you might need to take those extra steps.
