I purchased a Epox 8KTA3+ with 850 Duron from my local Fry's. Install was no problem, but now when I went back to finish ripping my CD collection, the ripping speed went from approx 1X down to .3X. The only reason I am asking on this list is because right after I installed the board, I downloaded the latest kernel at the time and compiled it (as anyone would have done). The upgrade was from 2.2.18 to 2.4.2. The compile and install went without a hitch. So now I am wondering what would cause the transfer speed to drop so dramatically on my CDROM reader (marked 48X, for what that's worth). Any one have any hints?
