    DVD Burner // CPU usage

    Don't have an extra harddrive or the cash to get one. The only thing running at the time this happens is DVD Shrink. And as I said, this only started at about the halfway point of life on the first burner. Used to run like a champ, now it's a chump.

    DVD Burner // CPU usage

    It's an AMD 2200+, 768mb RAM, the burner is a 16x NEC 3520. As I said, I'm really confused because this happened suddenly. The burner used to run like a champ, now it wouldn't stand up to a slug in a race. What am I looking for in the DMA settings?

    DVD Burner // CPU usage

    DVD Burner problem

    It's a goner. Didn't read it with the boot disk; it showed up, but it failed to read it. I deleted the drives and it reinstalled, still nothing. I'm pissed. This is the second burner that has gone out in as many months. Grrr!

    DVD Burner problem

    It won't read any CD or DVD, blank or not. My others computers will. Nothing happens after I insert, except that it will halt my computer from booting if it's in there when I turn the machine on.

    DVD Burner problem

    I had a dvd burner awhile ago and it finally stopped working, so I got rid of it and got a new one. At least, I thought it was the hardware that had just stopped. This new one I've probably burned twenty discs with. It's a NEC DVD_RW ND-3520-A. I hadn't used it in a couple of weeks, and a...
