I had this problem with my yamaha 6x recorder. I has 2 packs of discs that I bought at the same time, one burned fine , the other turned into coasters. I upgraded the firmware (from 1.2 to 1.8) and had no problem since. The upgrade was a windows program and the only windows on my machine was in vmware. I had to create a partition and install win2k on it. It would have been easier to buy a new recorder and if time is money, cheaper too.
