CD Burning Speed

Fyron · #1 June 13th, 2004, 10:32 PM

After recently upgrading from the mire of XP to win 2000, my 48x CD burner now takes 6.5 minutes to burn CDs at 48x, which is about the speed of 16x burning. I tried using the Device Manager to update the drivers for the drive, but that accomplished nothing. Any ideas as to why my CD burner now burns so slowly, and how to fix it?

Have you tried another CD-Burning tools? It can be your burning software problem, not the OS dependent one.

It is the same burning software I was using before. That should not be an issue.

What program are you using to burn the CD?

Nero Burning Rom.

16x is a typical max speed for CDRWs, and older CD-Rs.

Are you sure its not the disk's limit you're seeing?

Also, you may just have to reset the default speed settings in the software back up to 48x...
