Hi, My computer gets slow when I'm copying CDs and I don't know if it's normal or not. I think it's not because I have a pretty good computer. Here are the specs: CPU AMD Athlon XP 2500+ MB ASUS A7N8X Deluxe Ram 2x 512 MB DDR333 CD LG Combo drive 4320B I tried copying with EasyCD Creator and Nero but I have the same problem on both. Is there someting I can do or do you think it can be a hardware conflict? Thanks in advance for your help. Hurkyl
To ensure your drives are operating in DMA mode: (1) Control Panel, (2) System, (3) Goto the Hardware Tab, (4) Device Manager, (5) IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers, (6) Right Click on Primary IDE Channel --> Properties, (7) Goto the Advanced Settings Tab, Make sure both drop down boxes say 'DMA if Available', Click OK,(8) Right Click on Seconady IDE Channel --> Properties, (9) Goto the Advanced Settings Tab, Make sure both drop down boxes say 'DMA if Available', Click OK, (10) Reboot.
It works !!! That thing puzzled me for quite some times. It was the only thing I didn't like in my computer. I thought I had a bad burner and needed to change it. many many thanks.
