I am having mega problems with my 8438 alias 8432

It worked beautifiul when I first got it in Jan but it is a piece of crap
now.

Problem list:

1) wouldn't see Cd-r's
    was told by phone support to try 74min only because I had 80 min.
didn't work I have tried different brands. (memorex 74 & 80, Imation 80min)

2) Now Can't do CDRW's
    upgraded to various Nero's ,now on release 7/31/01 5.5. No different
results. Did internet support with creative and was told to check 5 files
(Aspi stuff). They were ok. The CDRW can read and load like a normal CD-ROM
but that's all it does.

Also have tried:
1) sent log file to Creative from NERO when it fails to write.

Ex:
    9:35:28 AM #27 mmc -1106 File Writer.cpp, Line 308
 Power calibration error

7:51:54 AM #25 mmc 11264 File WriterStatus.cpp, Line 194
 Command sequence error

Only successful at once at 2x but bombs on 4x. Wait it bombed on 2x after I
had a
good one.

2) tried DMA on/off
3) tried auto-insert on/off

4) How come there is 2 Winaspi files, one in NERO and one in windows/system,
which one is it using and is this a problem?

from log file:
