hey if someone could help please im not a computer genious, but ive been using shrink or ripit4me and then using imgburn to burn backup. it just started happening here lately but when i burn it takes forever. it use to take like ten minutes but now its taking around an hour and slowing me down. the only thing ive noticed different is the device buffer bounces up and down alot. if you could help me i would greatly appreciate it thanks.
make sure your drives are in DMA mode and not in PIO check here - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/260038 peace
At what rate are you burning using ImgBurn? Additionally, are you by any chance running any other applications or perhaps browsing the net simultaneously while burning? And lastly, check if there's a new firmware for your burner using ImgBurn itself by going to Tools>Drive>Check For Firmware Updates...
