New System Problem!!

Hi,
I just build a system for my sister because she needs a computer just for internet and word processing.
Specs:
Soyo 7VEM Barebones Kit
AMD Duron 900Mhz
384MB RAM (128+256)
Floppy Drive
120gb HD
CD-Burner

The problem is that I can't get Norton Ghost to ghost this machine to a cd. (backup). The 1st cd-burner i used didn't start burning at all, it burned like for 1second then ghost said it was not able to burn the cd.
Then I tried another cd-burner, it burned 1 cd, but towards the end, when it was closing the cd, it said it can't burn the cd.
I set the 'safe defaults' in the BIOS and check the connections.
It simply won't burn my hard disk image into the cd.
Is my processor overheating? Bad RAM? I don't know, please help!
Thank you very much, Paul

Maybe try burning at a slower speed.

Not really sure what to tell you as I have not presonally tried to use Ghost to burn an image to CD.... However, this page may be of assistance to you:

This page also seemed to have some fairly common problems and possible solutions. Might want to give that a shot and see if your answer is there:

Thanks everyone, I just got home from school.
There is no option to try to burn at a slower speed, and I just checked out that link, and it told me the same thing that I was thinking...
Is it possible that I got a bad MOBO or Processor?
Any other suggestions are welcome thanks

Have you checked to see if your burner is compatable with Ghost on Symantecs Website?
