I second that.
Check if the drive is in warranty and get a replacement. Also check if the cable is ok. else your may need some repairs.

power caliberation errors suggest only two faults:

faulty or fake or substandard media

second dying drive. I also had a samsung it showed power caliberation error one day and died on me suddenly.

IMHO you have to change your drive.

[shantanu]

Power calibration error comes when the drive cannot provide subsiquent power for writing or the disc cannot be determined by write head correctly,
Your Drive is Dying so make a relacemant if its under warranty or get it repaired by a mechanic (cost in service center rs. 200 for servicing and power IC rs.120) total of 320/- and your drive is back again.

and if you can spend then purchase a combo or DVDRW

@Orionz dude i also has \d the same problem

listen 1st u calm down

and 2nd install nero 5.5 or install the version of nero which was given to at the time u bought ur writer

and 3rd try writex media i think they are good

if nothing happens

straight away go to samsung service centre and bang the writer on their heads.

I am answering this same question in this forum for the 5th time .

Answer is sell the stupid drive(as i did), if no one is buying it throw it in garbage where it belongs. Last thing to do is the take a oath of never ever buying a 'Samsung' optical drive.
