Burning taking up all processing power.

Postby nyeturo989 on Wed Jan 29, 2003 5:49 pm

When I burn a CD, my processer is at 100%....

I have a 16x burner that came with my Dell.

Specs:
Windows XP Home Edition
P4 @ 1.8 GHz
and 256 MB RDRAM
HL-DT-ST CDRW GCE-8160B

I know this shouldn't be happening :(

Are you burning [from] MP3s [to CDA]? Takes a lot of CPU to decode [MP3s].
