ripping and burning music cd's used to take just a few minutes now it takes up to half hour to rip a cd, what could cause this. I heard somethin bout the dma mode but i cant change it. Heres a screen shot. Does anyone know why its doin this or am i better off buyin a new burner or maybe computer, this computer is around 3 yrs old and i did alot of burning so i dunno.

Run a search on keywords - how to dma

Here are two results from search.

You burner shouldn't be on the Primary IDE channel for a start!

Your burner needs to be on it's own channel for good speeds and to have DMA enabled.




Also, instead of using MS Paint to get screenshots, download a program called "FastStone". Version 5.3 is free. That's how I captured the shot above!
