    Hi, Has anyone heard of issues with burning .ISO files with the A100. My A100 will burn audio CDs (iTunes), and will burn data files in Nero 6, but will not burn .ISO based images with Nero 6 or DVD Decrypter. This is a recent issue (last 5 weeks) and has worked before that. I've tried using another Admin account and have reinstalled the OS but nothing seems to help. Any suggestions?

    I tried the burnCDCC in two different user accounts & the issues remains. I get a device error when initiating the burn. Burning CDs & reading DVDs still works normally. The optical drive is a Mat****a DVD -RAM UJ-841S Superdrive. I've also uninstalled the optical drive from the device manager & restarted, but issue remains. Any other suggestions before a hardware repair?

    I've tried Sony & Memorex discs but no change. Both of these brand worked before the issue developed.
