Memory is a factor here as well. The more memory (RAM) you have, the faster you'll be able to burn. Also, if have your burner on a separate IDE cable than your other devices (floppy, cdrom, hdd), your burner will function faster/better. Jez my $.02 Happy Etreeing! Matt "If its petty don't sweat it.

Be sure that you check to make sure you're drives (burner and HD) are set to DMA If Available, and not PIO.
