    Can't Burn DVD/CD's Under Vista 64-bit

    This is driving me crazy. I am using Vista 64-bit and cannot seem to burn
    anything at all. My burner reads everything fine (plays movies, install
    disks, etc.) but I can't write anything. I have tried using Windows Movie
    Maker as well as Nero 7.7.5.1, always get the same result. My burner is a
    Samsung SH-S182M. I have also tried my old burner (Sony DRU-710A) and I get
    the same result. The Sony works fine on my other computer running XP Home. It
    is like the burner can't finish the burn. Sometimes the disk is actually
    burnt (I can see the burning on the disk) but it never gets finalized (or
    concluded, or whatever) and other times the disk just remains blank. The
    error I usually get is to the effect to place a blank disk in the burner,
    even though one is in there. Other times the error is " Cannot create the
    DVD. The DVD cannot be burned because an error occurred. Try using another
    blank disc and make sure that your DVD burner is connected and working
    properly. Learn more about this problem. "

    Any ideas???

    I have the same problem with a external sony burner, drx700ul, roxio titanium
    dosen't burn, everything else works fine, on vista I search divice manager
    and the problem I found was that on device manager/dvd/cd-room drives, then
    you're burner, and driver file details the dlacdbhm.sys it's disable.. cuse
    incompatibility.. I thinks this is blocking the drive... maybe it's the
    driver software it self, try contacting your burner manufacturer...

    I have solved my problem. Thank you to all who tried to assist.

    I discovered a two-pin black cable marked "CD-ROM" was plugged into the
    second IDE connector, in pin holes 13 and 33. I have simply removed this
    cable and all works great now!!

    I bought a new computer system and this was the way it came so I am not sure
    what the cable is for (or even where the other end of the cable goes) but I
    will try to find out. None of my previous computers have had this cable, or
    at least, not plugged in this way, so I am at a loss.

    Anyway, I can burn again!!!!
