I've had the best luck burning DVD's at 1/2 the speed of whatever the media I'm using is rated for. SO 16tx is burned at 8x. 8x is burned at 4x etc. It helps reduce coasters which can happen no matter the disc quality. And honestly the difference between 16x and 8x speed when burning a DVD is just a handful of minutes so why risk a ruining a disc?

I burn my bootable disks on the lowest speed available. Learned my lesson the hard way.

Thats just wasteful. If quality media of say 16x speed is purchased changes are you can burn it at 16x speed without issue. There is no need to burn it at 2x, the slowest available.
I stick with what I said, 8x burns with 16x media in my opinion gives the best trade off of speed and accuracy without being overly slow.

Hello althrun,
I would not recommend downloading Windows 7 from any other site than the Official Microsoft Sites.
Additionally, it's always best to make sure you have a genuine version of Windows 7, this will entitle you to recieve updates and support from Microsoft with Genuine Advantage.

My prof said I needed visio to complete a project so signed me up for the MSDNAA Software Center. that opened the door for free downloads of 32 (wifes laptop) and 64bit(sons machine) win7 pro. I found I was eligible about 2 weeks after purchasing win7ultimate...

Ouch that hurts. Same here got everything I needed through the MSDNAA. Win 7 Por x64 on my PC, x32 on my brothers. Downloaded Windows Server 2008 just for the sake of throwing it on a old PC and testing it. And had their been 1 more Windows 7 license I would've switch my laptop from Ubuntu to Win 7 but it wasn't so.

Not so bad really as I use the Ultimate on my home media server w/FTP shared folder for the members of my band. If I were looking into hosting our website though I'd probably switch it over to a "proper" server OS.
In fact, I wanted to D/L server2008 (and visual studio) myself but got sidetracked after already D/Ling 3 products and finishing the infrastructure project i needed visio for. Thanks for the reminder.
