Stop errors when burning CDs

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem, and if you might know how to fix it.

I'm having intermittant problems when writing CDs - using an HP 8200 USB burner (latest HP drivers and RecordNow software) on XP Pro - every now and then I get stop errors with the code 0x40000080. This doesn't happen everytime, and I can't seem to find a pattern (I might burn 4 CDs before the stop error occurs, next time I might burn 7) - except that it always seems to occur towards the end of a burning session (when it is writing lead-ins/-outs).

I'm not running any other applications in the background - I just set the job up and leave it.
 
This is just a guess. What speed are you writing at maybe you could lower it. Also what speeds are indicated on the CD. Is it a CDR or CDW CD? Shop around for a brand of quality CD that doesn't give you trouble on your computer.

Check the Event Viewer to see if it gives you any more details about the errors.
