Error 3880, at my wit's end

Question

I've been searching these forums for months, trying to find a solution for my problem. And I've almost given up!The CD starts to burn, and then iTunes cancels burning. The Nero Burning software that I have behaves the same way, except iTunes says "Unexpected error [3880]" every time. This began happening regularly in March, about a week after I successfully burned another CD. Any help that anyone could offer would be MUCH appreciated! I've run iTunes diagnostics and include the results below:

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.
Check the Windows Update website to verify that you have the latest service packs and patches for your OS. Service packs affect the performance of USB and firewire CD / DVD drives.

Answer 1

Would updating Norton have affected iTunes's burning ability? Because I believe I updated the anti-virus at around the same time that a lot of things started going wrong with other programs. ;)
hmmmmm. i'm more accustomed to seeing reports of folks having trouble with importing after a Norton install (or an itunes install/upgrade on a PC running Norton). that's usually related to the issue discussed in this Symantec troubleshooting document:
iTunes cannot connect to the Music Store or Shared Music after installing Norton Internet Security
... are you getting any peculiar symptoms when you try importing commercial CDs, too?
