Default DVD Burner Problem

Hi,
I'm running Vista Home Premium. My Roxio Easy Creator Suite 9 was fine
except that it would not let me copy DVD audio to a CD-R. Roxio
suggested that I uninstall and then re-install their software. After
that, just trouble. It copies and burns CD-Rs. It copies OK DVDs to my
hard drive, then writes 193 MB to a blank DVD-R, whereupon the hard
drive sputters and stops, and I get a message that the drive
re-initialized and the burning was unsuccessful. About 5 or 6 error code
numbers are listed. Strangely, the factory-installed Toshiba Disc
Creator now does the same thing.
Toshiba was unhelpful, telling me to just reformat mu hard drive, and
lose all my info. Roxio has been giving me several "fixes", none of
which works.
It is very frustrating. I have uninstalled then re-installed both the
Roxio and Toshiba software for CD/DVD, I'm running McAfee Security
Suite, Ad-Aware, etc..I have done a System Restore. All did not help.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
