Have you tried a different burner program? I got a very high rate of
coasters with Nero 6.xx with my ECS VTA3 (VIA KT-333 chipset) and
Windows 98SE, never more than 5 good ones in a row, but with DVD
Decrypter the success rate has been close to 100%, even with Great
Quality junk made by Leadman Data (but I don't trust those disks).
