Neil writes, <Well, I would have thought that with only Toast and the OS in use, even 96MB of RAM would be enough. I have an OS 8.6 partition with Toast 5 Lite on it, but I can only get down to 256MB RAM so I can't really test this theory.
The "Finishing..." stage can take a while, but you should be able to work during that - I see from your other post that it locks up completely.> Yeah, it does, and it doesn't give any indication on what sort of progress it's making, if any, through this stage. Neither do the "Waiting for the Writer..." and "Preparing..." stages prior to the attempted burn either. That is rather irritating, IMO. When it went through the burning phase, it was very easy to see where it was at and how long it would take. ::::sigh:::: <>The drive reported an error: >Sense Key = MEDIUM ERROR >Sense Code = 0x02 >NO SEEK COMPLETE I decided to "google" this error, and it seems to be a standard CD burning and/or SCSI error, not specific to Toast. In fact, I ended up on the Nero site and they suggest causes ranging from bad CDs to dirty CD lenses and driver errors (it's a PC application). What brand CD-R/CD-RWs are you using - have you tried different types?> Thanks for this info.The CDs and CD-RWs I have are all Staples. Nope, haven't tried different any different brands. However, I did get an email from another lister who was asking me Qs about the SCSI connection between the G3 and the CDRW unit; she might think I'm having a SCSI problem....I don't think I was able to provide her with enough info (I'm not knowledgeable about the insides of my computers), but we'll see. <Other than that, I'm running out of suggestions already :-(> That's OK. I appreciate your thoughtful attempts and your google research did provide some insight. ~Yersinia. "Come, muse, let us sing of rats!" -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
