Thanks all who replied.

I did try 5580 as per Graham's suggestion but didn't help.

Far as I can tell the underrun always occurs late in the write sequence
which fits with Mike's theory that it might be related to the TOC.

The good news is that Feurio *did* successfully create a music CD for me. I
confess to muddling through the user interface somewhat - also seemed to be
a huge number of warning dialogs and caveats about one thing or another -
but I expect it'll all make sense in time! I don't know what if anything to
conclude about the state of my system but at least I have a way forward now
so thanks!

I am more or less a Newbie so if I'm not looking in the right place please
feel free to tell me!

I have an HP 8200 internal CD writer which does not have underrun
protection.

It works OK under W98 SE using Adaptec/Easy CD etc. It works fine for

data
files, and handled music cds which I first copied to an image file.

I have now upgraded (dual boot) to XP Home and Nero. Data files still work
fine, but trying to burn from a disk image (.NRG file) of a music cd , I
still get buffer underrun when I write them. I do not run any other
processes while the CD burn is happening. The underrun also occurs in
simulation mode. Reducing the write speed doesn't help (it was only X4
anyway!) Log file follows.

Any suggestions gratefully received - I'm getting fed up rebooting under

W98
to burn music cds so otherwise its a new cd writer...

Thanks
