I've heard that Memorex isn't all that good, I use TDK CD-R's. And I can burn at 48x.

If you've burnt above 16x before and it's only lately slowed down, it's quite possible you have the same problem as I had. Go to control panel>system>hardware>device manager>IDE/ATAPI controller.

Then go to either primary or secondary channel depending on the placement of the cd-rw drive. Go to Advanced Settings and have a look at the "Current Transfer Mode" for the cd-rw drive. What does it say there?

I can go to extras and then Nero DriveSpeed, but it doesnt have a write option...just how fast it reads it.

Alright..I went to try to burn a cd and its at 52X now...thanks!
