My Plexwriter Problem

[LoZ-M]

I have a little problem. My PC slows down and becomes almost unresponsive when burning a CD, any form of burning. Every time i have to change the piority to low and that doesnt do much in helping me.

The drive is a slave, my master is a normal 56 X CDROM

My pc is 1.5 gz, 512 SD RAM, Plexwriter 24/10/40A, Windows Xp Pro and Nero 6. Let me know if you neede more stats.

Thanks in advance

welcome to the boards n00b
anyways close things when u burn, like aim,kazaa, stuff like that

and it that doesnt work might be time to get another burner (they only last 2-3 yrs)

Cheers, what would everyone reccomend, Plexor or Lite-on and what would the cost roughly be?

Thanks for the advice
