Hi,
could you please explain what you mean? Are you saying, you used a blank CD
that was rated for 16x and recorded it at a burn setting of 40x, and that
turned out all right. But then you tried recording a 16x blank CD at 48x,
and that didn't work in some way? If I have it backward, please correct me
so that I can understand what you're describing.
Thanks.

I've tried 16 rated at 24 and done ok, but 16 at 40 blew up fairly often.
