I've been using ImgBurn for reading discs and creating images for years. Much easier & quicker than Nero etc...
It was always quick.
I have upgraded my PC. Now running WIndows 7 & LG DVD Writers (SATA HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NS95).
I noticed Imgburn checks the fle systems but does NOT use the Buffer. Is this normal.
It took 48 minutes to create an image which used to take approx 7 minutes.
I tried resetting DMA but states No resettable DMA channels.
The Log is below.... Please help. I don't copy that many discs but something is wrong.
For info... I did a DVD copy of the exact same disc using Nero & it created the image in 6minutes.
