I have an Artec 20x10x40x CD-RW drive and it comes with buffer underrun protection and I'm glad for that, otherwise I would have a lot of ruined CD's.
I noticed that when I am burning a data CD the buffer goes to well below 10% when I use the 16x or 20x burning speed.
I don't understand why this happens if the data is being read from my harddrive. It only goes downt to 98% when burning at a speed of 12x or less.
I got two new 40GB ATA133 72000rpm HD so the data would transfer faster but it's still the same problem.
I have an ECS K7S5A motherboard with an Athlon 1600+ XP and 388 MB RAM.
If anybody has any suggestions on how to remedy the problem. Maybe I need to enable, disable something in the motherboard. I would appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks.
