how do you burn at 1x if your burner minimum is 4x

i have being trying to burn my downloaded ps2 games but realised that my dvd burner only burns from 4 to 12x

and theres no point even trying it at 4x so is there any way i can get it to burn at 1x without buying a older drive?

 

are you talking about cd or dvd burning?

 

dvd

 

are you using 8x media?

 

You should be fine burning at 4x. Just make sure that you are using 4x media.

 

will burning at 4x put more stress on my ps2 laser?

i want to get this right before burning any so i dont end up with load of coasters

 

If you use high quality media, you should be fine.
