Sony DRU-500A and DVDA2 Making Coasters

I burnt many Memorex 4x DVD-Rs with DVDA1. Now, with DVDA2, I get coasters with the same batch of Discs (DVDA2 has successfully burn Memorex and Sony 2.4x DVD+RWs). The same prepared folder burns fine (I've tried multiple times) with Veritas RecordNow DX that came with the Sony Drive.

With DVDA2, I can turn "test only" on and it wil still fail with the same sense codes.

Also, why does DVDA2 claim that "21 02" are unknown additional sense codes. The help for RecordNow DX defines them as "Invalid Address For Write Incremental". Aren't these standard codes ?

DVD2 also prints in the "less details" window:
Error from DVDA2: The drive has been reset, most likely by another application or due to a SCSI/IDE configuration problem.

Running WinXP with latest updates (not SP2)

Anyone else seeing this ? Very frustrating.
