why is nero giving me sh!t?

[copaceticKid]

i have two drives: Lite On 16x DVD and Lite On CD-RW 40x12x48

so naturally, i want to do a direct copy from my dvd drive to my cd-rw

well, it starts to burn, but then starts reading slower than sh!t WTF

anyone ever run into a problem like this??

[copaceticKid]

interesting... it only seems to do this for certain cds... they are old too...

Nero sucks!  Get something better here, BYAO!

Make sure Nero is doing an 'On the fly' copy instead of making an image first. Also try and keep both theoptical drives on different ide cables.

I had this same problem when I copied an unnamed CD
I think it has something to do with how the source CD has stored the information.
I know back in the old days when you were only a twinkle in your mothers eye
They use to fragment the disks. Well thats what the old people tell me.
Wtf is a disk

The first time I tried to copy this CD it went well over 30min. So thinking something was wrong
I canceled it.
Second time same thing happened but only on the last 10% --went well over 30min again. So
once again I canceled it.
Third time just left it. Came back and it completed perfectly --> it took about 45min
And this is using the same burner as yourself but mine is 24x

ok gnx, you seem to know lots on this subject...

i got clonecd and a prog called daemon tools, now i just need to figure out how to make a 1:1 copy with clonecd.

i try to make an image, but it just stalls at 0%. There are no helpful settings in clonecd, i am under the impression that it always does raw copies, nothing else.

now i want to know if i need to do something with my software, or if it's my lite on burner. anyone know if the lite on 40x burner can do raw copies?

should i just get fantomcd?
