DVD Maker Starts burn but won't finish.

I'm using Windows Vista. I have burned three dvds with the windows dvd maker
and now anytime I try to burn a disc, it starts, gets to about 75% and then
tells me that it cannot finish. I tried changing the speed...same problem. I
have not changed anything else.

Reboot into safe mºde (F-8)

Suggest cleaning up the system (clearing out all the Temp/Tmp folders, and
included all offline content, clearing the browser TIF, Delete Cookies , do a
Disk CleanUp.

Click the Start button . In the Search box, type Disk Cleanup, and then, in
the list of results, click Disk Cleanup.

Empty user and system "temp" folders.

Go to Start > Run > copy and paste the below into the Open: line

%systemdrive%\temp

%systemdrive%\%windir%\temp

%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp

Perhaps some HD maintenance, try running the "chkdsk /r" command at the
command prompt

Go to Start > Run > copy and paste the below into the Open: line
chkdsk /r

Exit Safe Mode (Rebººt)

I hope this post is helpful.
Let us know how it works ºut

Why do all that when ccleaner will do it all for you with a couple of
clicks of the mouse? It's free.
