Hey guys, 
I’m new to the forum and I just got a LG GSA-4167B in a USB2.0 hardware case. I have no idea what I’m doing wrong, but I noticed that the Buffer goes too high when I tried to burn it. Anyhow… I haven’t being able to burn anything. [btw haven’t tried to burn cds] 
If you guys could help me it would be awesome!!!
Things I tried:
- I added 256mb, memory up too 767mb.
- Hmm I cleaned my harddrive, but need the dvd burner to clean more… now with 4.5gb available.
- Turn off everything possible. (notepad, internet explorer).
Thanks a bunch
here is my log ===>
