Buffer Underruns
 

Im having problems with copying PSX games. I am getting buffer underrun lately. I have copyed 5 Ps games and want to do 2 more. I have Nero. can anyone help me? my aol name is tonyg6274

In my experience, buffer underruns occur when the cd-writer cannot keep up with the cd-reader. If you've been successful before, then it might be that your PC is behaving differently - like there is a daemon running that consumes cycles and resources preventing Nero from working normally. If that's not the cause, try running the CD-writer at a slower speed.

I assume that we're not looking at a Nero spoiler when the free trial period runs out? (I don't know how Nero protects itself after the free trial period).

after the trail period it stoips working but i set my computers date back and it ran well and i copyed like 3or 4 things since then. it only copies at 2x and my computer reads at 24x

btw what is a daemon?

The FIRST things to fix your problem is to use CdClone if you have it and you burner can use it.
Next, remove ALL stuff running n the background that you don't need, NEXT Defrag your hard-drive with Nortons Speedisk, Set the backup buffer in CDClone to 10-15 megs.

I have NEVER had a Buffer Underrun using the above.

Good advice from Steverd. Also CDR-WIN if u r not 100% hardware compatible with Clone-CD.
