I'm having the same problems with my 8432e, too.  But, I have found two
brands of 80 min CDR's that work with this model (TDK & Maxell using Nero
5.5.1.8).  I've bought about seven different brands so far and I've only had
luck with the two listed above.  I know it's a sorry excuse for a
solution...  But, until Creative decides to something (if anything at all)
this may be the only choice unless purchasing another burner is an option
for you.

I can use the Sony 80, but have not had luck with others, particularly the
Imation 80.
