Invalid block address while burning disc with nero

Even me too faced the same problem, but now it is fixed.

I have goggled for at least an hour and end up with no solution. Some where it was mentioned that this may be because of the another writer which might be connected via USB.

It was also mentioned that is because of Nero. But actually there is no issues with the Nero. When I checked in the BIOS, there was an extra USB DVD burner. When I removed my USB modem, it was disappeared. Now the problem is solved, there is no issues in burning. You can also solve this problem by removing the driver of that unidentified DVD writer. Below the screen shot of the error which I got.
