Hi

I've had a Yamaha CDR400t CD-r for about a year now and burnt numerous CD 
games from it. They have almost always worked OK on my cheapie "BTCC" CD 
reader. However while the last few CDs work, they cause the CD reader to 
freeze after awhile. The reader motor seems to "hunt" (spped keeps 
changing) and instead of the light on the front extinguishing a few 
seconds after the CD has been inserted, it stays on indefinitely. 
Eventually the CD reader won't open its tray, can't be read from and one 
has to reboot to be able to use it again.

The CD reader seems to work fine with silver CDs and other older burnt 
CDs from the same CD-r. The current batch of CD-r blanks was Mitsui gold 
the first 26 worked OK, the problem has only surfaced with the last 4.

I often get "TrackWriter Warning 765[x]: Operation continues" as an 
"error" message from a burn, though I'm told that any CD produced should 
still be OK, though the CD-r burner might need some adjustment.

Any help appreciated

JR
