I have Nero 6 and use its InCD for packet written CD's. I'm right now
copying 500 MB or so of data (8 files) from a HD to a CDRW, packet
written by InCD. Windows 2000 shows that I have almost no CPU usage and
memory usage (of my 512 MB) is less than 300 MB. But my programs seem
slowed by a factor of 20! It varies. Sometimes nothing happens,
sometimes I have some activity. It's taking around an hour to copy the
data. Could it be a configuration issue? Maybe DMA not in effect for my
DVD+RW writer? There doesn't seem to be a setting for that in Device
Manager. TIA.

DMA setting is under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, Primary or Secondary
IDE channel.
