    If your drive is indeed lite-on, imgburn has a bitsetting/booktyping feature built in. Though I read recently (today) that bitsetting liteys can be risky and COULD damage the writer/burner. Please dont quote me. It could have been someone who didnt know what they were talking about. There is also a litey utility floating around on Afterdawn. GOOGLE "settings utility for lite-on drives." Should be on the top of google. cdfreaks that is :)
