Post Can not make a multi session disc

Hello friends

I am having a horrid time. NERO (ver 6.1.6.15a) can never keep my DATA discs open (no multi session). I used NERO Burning ROM and NERO Express both, but the result is the same. I have chosen the option to keep the disc open every time I tried. I am using NERO 6 Ultra Edition. This problem started to happen suddenly. Earlier I have used the same burner to write multi session discs. I tried to change the media too, but that did not help. I use LITEON DVD Burner (LITE-ON DVDRW SHM-165H6S) and I think the firmwire (ver HS0E) is up to date.

I tried to use CDBurner XP, but it is already having this bug and the developer is yet to find a solution, I asked that in its user forum and got the confirmation.

In the meantime I opened the disc in another PC having a BENQ COMBO CD523C (CD-DVD combo drive- CD ROM/RW but DVD ROM). In it the same disc can be seen as Open Session by both CDBurner XP and NERO (same version as mine)!!! I even wrote some data to check and the writing completed successfully.

I tried to erase one RW cd with NERO and CDBurner XP, but neither sw was successful. Then I could only erase it with ImgBurn. After that it was possible for me to write new data on the RW disc. but again, NERO could not continue this multi-session disc. NERO gave error that the disc is ROM type so can not be written upon. CDBurner XP's "Disc Information" tool showed that the disc is closed. Then I tried NERO Info tool, and found that it is also showing the disc being closed. I tried update NERO 8 to see if that can resolve the issue, but that also did not help.

So is it a problem of software or hardware? If it is hardware issue, which new burner should I go for?

Please help me out.

Thank you.
