You need to force an overburn. Look up the max recording time on the manufacturers website (or you'll break the cd-r) and then allow Nero (or alternative software) to overburn upto this limit... Normally around 95 mins on most CD-R drives... It'll only give you about 840mb though...

from plextor site-
Oversized CD-R media (90 - 99 minutes) :
The extra data space on these discs was accomplished by positioning the tracks closer together and by using a part of the "lead in" and "lead out" for data purpose.
However due to these modifications the CD-R discs do not match the Red book standard and quality cannot be guaranteed.
The use of the official CD logo is not allowed on these CD-R discs.
Some Plexwriters can work with the 90 - 99 minutes media when the latest firmware is installed, more info can be found on the info records of the firmware upgrades on the download page.
Some of these media are forced to be recognised as 80 minute media and the remaining part can only be written by use of overburning.
gona try installin the firmware again
think might of didnt work coz i had to press reset when it didnt restart
