[Buffer Recovery]

Doh - Just noticed that DMA is not active on DVD drive, would this limit speed to 0.8x? How do I enable DMA?

 

I have attached device manager settings but it is stuck on PIO only?

[Buffer Recovery]

I have the same problem with my buffer. CD/DVDs will not burn at above 0.8x! The device buffer will get to 70-80% then empty again continuously. This also happens in Nero. I recently reinstalled windows and before I could burn at 16x.

 

I am using Infiniti DVD-R 16x on a HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-H10N.

 

Using Windows XP, Core 2 E6600, Asus P5B, 2GB RAM, 150GB WD RAPTOR, WD SATA 500GB, WD 500GB RAID0.

 

The problem occurs on whatever drive I try to burn from. All disk are defragmented and I have tried disabling antivirus and any other running software but I can't get above 0.8x DVD burning which takes over an hour!

 

Help!
