My TDK VeloCD 48x/24/48 is burning slower than advertised. I've had great success with it previously, just recently its been burning full 700 MB discs @48x which for some reason finishes in 5 minutes instead of 2:30. I'm using Fuji *TY* Media 48x. Is there a reason for this slowdown? Computer...

I'm having trouble using data CD-Rs in two different laptops that have internal DVD-ROM drives. It's a real problem because I need to use CD-Rs of installers for Windows 2000 or XP (legal copies - we are permitted, and in fact required to make our own installer CD copies from masters supplied under...

Hello, what is your experiences with using Mount Rainier write format ( by InCD im my case ) ? It is said to be much better/more reliable then common UDF packet writing. I use it here and there for several weeks for home-job one way file transporting,

The odds are you will never recieve one. Never have problems with any other company getting rebates for CDR's except for FUJI twice now.

Hi all! I have a two year old Sony CRX160E CD RW cd-writer, that has been working perfectly with my AMD1400 system. But since one week back, it can't burn a single disc without a "Write Error" from Nero after a few percent's writing. I didn't change a single thing about my system that could have...

My Dell Dimension came with a Samsung SW-248F CDRW drive, that supposedly has underrun protection via JustLink. Trying to burn an audio CD from 21 MP3 files , I get an underrun at all speeds - the drive supports 48. I did all the things - turned off virus protection, stopped most apps, made sure of...

I want to burn a CD with all MP3 files, not converted, but native. I want to see the name of the song on my car stereo (CD-Text). I know my burner supports this as I can do it with an audio CD. I know my car stereo supports it as well. But when I burn MP3's to a disk, it is seen as a data disk,...

Let say that I have two IDE cables. 1- What configuration below has the maximum speed data transfer when burning a CD from the CD reader? 2- How the processor works it out or where the data goes?
