I've got the same crap going on here. In the last three CDs I've
burned 

* The CPU meter hits the roof. It maintains 99% usage the entire
  time. Under 8.2 burning duties never exceeded 1.5%.
* A 16MB fifo buffer while burning a 600MB CD, stuggles to keep
  full, rarely maintaining 25% content. During my last try, it 
  emptied 90 times! The drive was 6% away from having to employ
  burnfree. The CD before that did use burnfree 15 times.

Other points: 

* xcdroast, eroaster, and cdrecord get the same results (duh)
* My USB SmartMedia reader is device 0,0,0. My burner is 1,2,0.
* Nero had no problems in WinXP with the same hardware and media.

What's going on?
