CD Burning Direct to Disk

I have a client that used to be able to burn straight to disk by using the export function in Paperport and would save striaght to a CD-R.  The drive would spin and burn it instantly.  It stopped working a few weeks ago and several IT guys have looked into the issue.  We have tried other scanning programs, we have removed and reinstalled NERO, applied all updates, enabled desktop CD burning for Windows XP Home.  I have also run Spyware and Regisry cleanup on the machine.  

In the past two weeks, we have gotten the computer to burn it twice, but he next day it stops.  The drives are working and I have removed all of the drivers and replaced them with other drivers.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing the system to fail and/or how can I make this work long term?

Also I'd like to add,  you can use windows xp inbuilt burn tol to burn data CD's.
When you first insert a blank CD into your CD recorder drive, Windows XP opens a dialog box asking if you want to open a writable CD folder.
