Hi and welcome to the forum

Usually playback problems are due to a bad burning.

What media are you using exactly? Can you post here mediacode? You can find it with cd-dvd speed.

Moreover, what burner do you have? What firmware?

In my opinion your problem is in media: datawrite are low quality media. Try to use better discs like verbatim or taiyo yuden.

i used datawrite to copy dvds with xp home edition and all the films worked fine, i am beggining to wonder if its my os, the x64 bit that is at fault as all my troubles started since the os upgrade

Datawrite are anyway low quality media.

If you have more problem with the new 64bit OS, probably your computer have some performace problem.

Maybe there are too much running processes in background that interfere in some way with the burning process.

Can you do a burning with CD-DVD Speed using the "Create Disc" tab and then post here pic? In this way we can see graphically what happen during burn. For example, a too frequent buffer emptying can reduce heavily burning quality.

Ok, here there are some issues.

First, you should use latest version, because create disc test give more informations on the burning process, the one that are more useful for us, like CPU usage and buffer level during the burn.

Second, can you please post the exact mediacode? This disc was burned @2,4x. If you used a 16x media, burning it at a so low speed have an high probability to create a bad burned disc.

you're probably burning way too slow for your media. what is the rated speed of the media?

also that drive seems like an older NEC...what is the rive's max burn speed capability?

take a look here

Thanks DrageMester for the suggestion

These media are certified 8x. Burning them @2,4x probably cause bad burnings. If your burner see them only as 2,4x, then probably you need to update firmware.

Take a look here

Here there are all NEC 1100 A firmwares

Sorry, I'm not able to suggest which one. 1.A3 seems the right choice, but I'm not sure
