yes the drive I have is an 8x4x32 ZipCD. I don't use the programs you refer
to , I use X-CDRoast, For the first problem ,if you have buffer underruns and
sounds like it, is to up the FIFO Buffer. I installed the two prgs. you
refered to in Gcombust goto the file menu select preferences and change the
FIFO buffer to something like 8M default is 4M, I had to do this with
X-CDRoast so I could burn at 8 speed for data, I can only do audio at 4,
Gtoaster I did not see where to change the FIFO buffer size sorry. Try this
and let me know how it works, Have you tried burning at a slower speed then
your max?
