Hi George, Thanks much for your detailed respond.

Not all CDs can be burned at the same speed. 3) Nero's ability to decide what is the best speed. You can reasonably assume that of you buy CD's which can be burned at a higher speed than your CD burner is capable of, they will usually be of a higher quality. Hence it will do no harm if you buy say 52 speed CDs. However conversely, if you try to burn at say 40 speed on to 32 speed CDs, (assuming Nero allowed you to do this) then there would be a risk of corruption. Nero has an option (check box) to "Determine Maximum Speed" when you burn a CD, where is self checks items 1 & 2 above, and recommends the best speed for the job. George. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Moti Azrad Sent: 23 November 2005 08:18 To: Jfw List; helpneeded list; access-uk list Subject: [access-uk] The recommended speed of burning cd Hi friends, I'm using winxp professional, with a new pc, Jaws 7.0.
