Possible to Change Write Speed on XP CD Burner?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I've been using XP's CD file burner feature, but is it painfully slow.
Is there a setting somewhere to speed it up?

Where is it anyway?

It isn't that XP's burning capability is slow. The speed of the drive is
what is really important. If you have an older cd-rw drive, just go buy
a newer one. They are very inexpensive.
