I agree that something is wrong, but when you get it working don't plan on burning at maximum speeds. I never burn CDs faster than 16x and DVDs 4x. See for yourself (once this is fixed) by burning a CD at maximum speed and then one at 16x, then running a quality scan with something like dvdisaster. Good drives can usually manage to read low quality discs, but it takes longer. And, of course, the quality of the media you buy matters too. Admittedly, I buy the cheapest I can find; if you buy better media burning a bit faster is probably fine, although still not maximum. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
