i have a new media center m7060n and have a lightscribe hp dvd/cd writer 640b now the problem is that i have plenty of room on the hard drive and i have a gig of mem. Before when i encoded movies with dvd shrink it take me at the most 30 minutes for even a long movie up until two days ago and nero would burn a dvd in 14 minutes sometimes it would say 14 minutes and it would take 8 but now it takes me 30-35 minutes even to encode 4.7gb dvd and it has been taking me 45 minutes to burn any dvd but when i look at the time on nero it says 14 minutes i have taken off unnessary start up items and i have taken off items that i do not use i have uninstalled and reinstalled nero and dvd shrink tried it with 1 click dvd copy it is taking longer it sounds like the dvd writer but it does everything else fine i have heard that nero will mess up the dvd writer but i tested it and it seems fine only when i encode or burn it runs slow and makes everything else run slow which it did not do before if anybody could give any suggestions please help also noticed that if i do not use that dvd writer the system will not be slow i also have another dvd writer and it writes at 4x the one i usually use writes at 8 x times at it encodes faster the dvd writer i use.

Try uninstalling Nero, use the Nero clean up tool, [google for it] then re-install Nero, this may work, and can't hurt.

jlv2325 ,

You might try checking in Device Managwer and making sure the Primary IDE Channels and Secondary IDE Channels are in DMA Mode. If in PIO then uninstall the devices by right clicking them and then re-boot the computer. Windows will then re-install them

Try punctuating your post! Geez!

Try enabling your DMA.
