i have been running xp pro on my machine for ten months now with no probs, but since last week if i burn a cd on the fly , my liteon 24102b throws a wobbler, the burn proof is activated every second unless i burn at 4x speeds and it takes longer to burn at 24x than 4x !!! . i have taken the writer to a pals and it works perfect in his machine also on xp pro . it happens on all the burning sofware i have used nero,clone,cdrwin. so i formatted the drive freshly installed xp pro again and it was no different. so now i think it may be the motherboard, took it to my local pc dealer (who built it last jan)
he put another hard drive in it with windows 98se on it and with the DMA ENABLED on it burns on the fly ok !!!. so he tells me that there is not a problem with my machine it must be xp pro !!!!!!!!!!!!!. now i am getting a bit pissed off.
how can my machine run all this time fine burning cd's on the fly but now all of a sudden it's my operating system ??? i think i have a hardware fault, please any thoughts on this would be much appreciated. the system has been solid as rock since xp pro was put on in january. this is what is in the pc.
