I use Dell Ispiron 9200 with NEC ND-6500A. I use Ridata media to burn DVDs without problems until recently it keeps giving me the “Power Calibration Error”. I have burned over 300 Ridata media wothout a problem. Anyone can help me? I have Nero 6.6.1.4, and the firmware for the burner is the latest from NEC website. I did try using verbatim but same problem. My burner is getting old and it is time for change?
