Scott welcome on macosx.com

Which type of data do you try to burn: data, music ?
How do you burn them: through the Finder, an image through DiskUtility, with an external software like Toast ?
Do you burn them on a SuperDrive or on an external CD burner ?
If external, is this burner USB or Firewire ?
Do you burn the CD on the Mac or on some PC ?

Regards
Philippe

data - word files
Finder - Burn Disk
Super Drive
NA
Mac

I finaly ended up getting my IMac - ethernetting them and burning the disk on my computer without this utterly bizzare mode of disfunctionality occuring - really makes me question the Mac OS X software! Bring back the SE and Word 5.1 - they worked...

Scott, finally, does the burning process works fine ?

May I suggest the following mainteance advices ?

(1) Once a week: repair permissions
(must be admin)
Launch Applications/Utilities/DiskUtility
On the left pane, select the drive
On the right, select the First Aid (or SOS) tab
Then click on repair permissions and let run; don not worry about messages like " new permissions...."
Quit DiskUtility
Shutdown and reboot

(2) Every two days: run the Unix maintenance scripts through Macjanitor
http://personalpages.tds.net/~brian_...acjanitor.html
The maintenance scripts are Unix scripts which are automatically ran on your
Mac between 02Am and 04 am..if your Mac is on at this moment.
I can advice you to run, through Macjanitor, the daily script each day, the week script each week, ..and so on

(3) Once a week, cleaning the cache with Onyx

Mac OSX is very powerfull, but it is a Unix system, which requiers regular maintenance.
