I have owned my verbatim 32x12x40x cd-rw for quite some time now, around 6 months. The same nero software with it too. everything works fine until yesterday when i tried to burn a cd! when i was ready to write to the cd i could only choose from 12x or 8x write speeds! my friend advised me to re install the cd-rw from scratch. I did that and it fixed the problem. now tonight i burned a second cd and the problem popped right back up again and i can only burn in 12x or 8x, my current cd's i use are 16x max


very unusual since when i first re installed my cd-rw i could burn fine with all speeds available.
 
Have yon installed any software that might interfere with you CD-Drives? Anything at all?
 
no idea. just wanted to say i just purchased the exact same drive on clearance for $20... then i got a $30 mail-in rebate. }:p

besides this current problem which might be software or cd-r media based.. it's been a good burner, right?
 
yup no problems except this recent one.. i just now found out recently that when i start my pc fresh, it has the right speeds, but hours after my pc is on is when i decided to burn a cd and thats also when the low burn speeds would only show. so if i wanna burn fast, gotta restart pc :\

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
