Another dumb question for you...

Is your Laptop plugged into AC while you are doing your burns?

You are correct when you say that it makes no sense. I think now you should try burning without using multi-tasking and you might find that it will work the same.

You have done something to correct the problem, it didn't correct itself by multi-tasking.

I'm glad for you that it's working the way it should. I have no reason to doubt you since you are the one using your hardware. If you ever find out what can cause your burner to go into USB 2.0 mode when you put a demand on your CPU, let me know.

Could it be some setting on your laptop to use full power when tasked, only letting the USB 2.0 driver to kick in when you put a demand on your Laptop?

That?s why I asked about using AC when you are burning. Please let us know when you find out.

It is either USB 1.1 or USB 2.0, and whatever your burner connection is at the time is also either USB 1.1 or USB 2.0. There is no in between. There is no automatic settings of a rheostat or potentiometer on your PCMCIA card that can make the speeds fluctuate as a variable.

Good luck again :)

My last comments/suggestion.

On my wife?s laptop, it has different power settings for the screen, Hard Drives, etc., and whether its plugged into AC power, etc. What I was trying to refer to a couple of posts ago is that what you are stating and a possible power setting could be one in the same. Since your burner is external, your Laptop might not pick up on its needs until your main processor is tasked by a local program.

I suggest seeing what your power settings are on your particular laptop and see if there is any correlation between the two.
