Though it burns CDs, When I try burning DVDs on my SONY DVD writer it gives a message- Burning failed- "Power callibration error"

just came across something. check it out. http://www.electricattic.net/en/mediumspeederror.htm. My guess is, the problem results due to poor DVD quality, try changing the brand.

I have also had this problem. With me I can't burn bootable cd's with 'phillps' brand yet can burn movies.

Have you tried lowering the burn speed?

- let us know how it goes.
I don't mind helping but please mark your thread as solved once the problem is sorted. If you figure it out tell us how you did it, don't just abandon your thread!

The firmware on your burner may be updatable, search for your burners make and model on the net.
