Have you tried updating the firmware on your NEC?  As mentioned by the previous post it could be a booktype issue.  I believe the Pioneer 110 autosets the booktype to DVD-ROM on D/L discs as have all of the late model Pioneer burners.


As I said in my initial post, I updated the firmware and even tried the hacked firmware...i tried them all. It's all water under the bridge now anyway as the burner is long gone and the 111 is on it wasy biggrin.gif

Okay, I won't argue with you that buying a Pioneer 111D was a smart choice, I just wanted to make sure you weren't throwing out a good burner for something that was user error.

Yup, although given how cheap the Pioneer 111D is going for these days, it's hard not to do the upgrade.  I bought mine last week for $32 shipped, which is a great deal for the drive as is.  However they also threw in a 50 pack of 16x Ink Jet Printable Verbatim DVD-R discs for free with the purchase of the drive.  Yeah, I know they won't do anything as far as the 360 is concerned but they are still great discs that can be used for other applications.

And another question:
Is a pioneer 111D just as good as a 110D?
