[pchelpers] Re: Nero Burning Problem

I wonder if your CD burner has a bit of fluff or grit in its mechanism? 
It is the sort of thing that would interrupt movement only at a certain 
point and prevent normal track writing. The only way to find out is to 
open it and clean then lubricate the runners and clean the head 
carefully. Cleaning can be done with a cotton bud moistened with 
isopropyl alcohol. After that, moisten another one with a light 
cleaner/lubricant and run it gently over the runners. Don't touch the 
head with it. Are you up to that?
