i've got a yahmaha 2100S  & toast 5.01 ~  i've seen a similar dialog box
myself  at very odd times ~
i've only seen it with CD-R  though ~ i presume they must be faulty so bin
them & shove in another  to carry on .

a few mins later ........

 i've run a test with a CD-RW  ~   i think the suspect area  might be the
write speed   ...
does it offer you  a lower speed to burn at than it does with CD-R ? .
i've got a 4x CD-RW  so it only offers me   <=4x speed  instead of  speed
up to 16x with CD-R ,
( even though 8x is best speed for non coasters ) .
