I had to slow mine down to 32x after losing so many discs to incomplete burns. The guy I talked to at Radio Shack told me that my computer is slow and that the burner I have is better on a faster system than on mine. When I figured that the slower burn rate resulted in more complete discs than the faster rate, I felt better about it, because I would hate to have to throw out so many discs when making them. On the faster burn, I was losing five discs to every one. That's a pretty high ratio. On the slower speed, it has cut way down. It's clear I'll be needing a more up-to-date computer, and will have to buy a new one anyway.
