Thanks highlander for your very good answer.

SO you turned off DMA on your CPU ?

That is one thing i didn't try. I should have.

As for the connections, I had the same as you.

When you say your PC was hanging up with DMA activated, do you mean that it stopped completely, with the screen turning black ??

Anyway, it's too bad I have sen you reply before. I would have tried your settings. 'cause I finally gave up on th LG writer. I got a HP USB external burner instead. I was able to make my first copy with it. There is one problem though : it's toooo sloooow. It takes an eternity before the copy is done. It's ridiculous.

If before the end of the month, i am still not satisfied, I make give that old LG one more try.

Thanks for replying.
