I have being copying dvds with my computer for 3 months now, using dvd shrink and nero v7. Until a week ago it was taking me between 10-25 mins to rip shrink and burn a movie. Now it still rips and shrinks the movies in about 8-15 mins but burning takes closer to 45 mins. I didn't change any settings and was wondering why this is happening. Also when i burn regular cds it takes 12 mins instead of 3 or 4 before this problem started. I have a intel petium d 2.8ghz, 1gb ram, 100gb free space, and 16xdvdrw 48xcdrw.
Check and make sure your drives have not slipped into PIO mode, they need to be in DMA. Here is a guide that will show you what to do. http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/checking DMA.pdf
i looked at the stuff u said but was wonder by unistalling the controllers will that cause any problems because i don't know where any of the backup disks for my comp are, and u were right device 0 was set as dma if available and was ultra dma mode 2 but the device 1 was set as dma if available and was in pio mode
As stated after you uninstall, and restart the computer will find your drives and change them to DMA.
