    D'you get any error preventing burning from starting? or does it burn bad discs?

    which version of windows - try system restore as it's likely to be far far faster than trouble shooting

    any changes to pc recently ?

    scan for viruses/malware

    defrag if it's making coasters

    which software ?
    did you check for updated firmware ( only if all else fails and for known errors - if you try to falsh and your pc is infected you may end up with a dead drive )

    use the manufacturer diags to test the drive / use a program like cd2iso to checck the drive can read disks

    try a different writer app
    www.cdburnerxp.se / http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net/

    it could be media too

    dvd drives have a high failure rate :(
