k now this is really annoying, I have been using 2517 for 2 days without problem, did a cd burn this morning than left pc on n went outside. After I come back, opened Easy Cd creator 5.02 again to burn a iso, it started ok but I felt system got slow, so after thinking why, checked if writer was on DMA mode still n it wasn't. somehow it passed to PIO mode itself. Selection is still DMA if avaible, but whatever I do I couldn't switch it back to DMA mode
can someone explain that ? or a way to force it to DMa mode ?
