Problem with Nero and max burn speeds.

I'm using Nero Burning Rom ver. 5.5.8.3 on a Lite-On LTR-40125S, which is most assuredly capable of 40x burning.

(WinXPPro, AMD 1400+, Gigabyte 7vax, 512 ram 333mhz, wdjb 80gig SE, the HD is primary on IDE 0 and the Lite-On is primary on IDE 1)

The problem I have is this: Nero has become convinced, for what reason I don't know, that the drive's top burn speed is 32x. When I installed the drive, and Nero, everything went fine. I did the drive speed tests it wanted, and everyone was happy. The drop down menu in the burning dialogue always listed 40x as a burn speed choice.
However, all of a sudden the max speed is 32x and that is what is listed in the drive properties that Nero displays.


What really kills me is this: I've been burning 2 different CDs while writing this, and the one I'm doing right now is at 40x. This time it appeared in the drop down box.

Does anyone know if Nero somehow determines what the max speeds are for certain disks? If it does, this makes sense.

Thanks.

Do the discs you are using have a maximum 32x burn speed? I thought that Nero could detect the type of media being used, but I'm not certain. (Although the discs are blank, they do contain info such as the manufacturer, dye type, etc. encoded on them).

Crazy
 
i think blank disc's do have max burn speed on them and the drives/software can detect that.

Gotta be the disks. Nero dropped down to 8x on me when i tried burning on some disks my brotherinlaw gave me. I looked at the disks and the max speed was 8x. cheap bastard. Anyway nero will autodetect and dropdown. Which is good i guess. You would prob kill the disk if you burnt over the max speed.

Ah HA!

I should have thought of that. But hey, I can't think of everything; that's why I turn to you good people.

Thank you.

My Yamaha burns @44 on 32 <b>and</b> 16x disks with no problem. Many drives detect vibration and back off to minimize that. Maybe that is what is happening.

BTW, Using Nero 5 also.
