RE: system trivia (groove/programming): DOS prompt/etc and choppy

We use
a Plextor at my office and I run Veritas Backup Exec, surf the internet or any other programs and have never had a problem.  Very impressive burner.  Now my one at home is being a big pain in the arse because it doesn't want to operate at it's maximum transfer speed.  very troubling...

  I
  don't think its memory related at all.  I have more then enough for what   I do and it does
  the
  same thing.  That being said, before I cut a music CD it even tells me   not to launch
  any
  other applications as it is a "sensitive operation".  I have been snared   where I was
  <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

    Really?  I thought it was only
    because my personal pc has so little memory.   I run into that     behavior with explorer and playing mp3's at the same time.  This also     becomes a problem when burning a cd or changing formats, and even though I     leave it alone, sometimes it ends up a bit garbled.     How much memory do you have,
    EP?  If I remember right you are the gamer and bought the big huge     system for the pc games?

      and choppy sound 
      Here's a stab in the dark: 
      Windows still doesn't know how to 
      gracefully handle software 
      interrupts?
