I'm ALWAYS on AOL.... Are you sure you have my screenname in your buddy list correct? (Makave2345)
And if you have Microsoft Messenger my contact name is: (Makave2345**********com) so you can add that one also..

Anyways..... 4X media is still hard to find right now in retail stores... I purchased some from e-bay.... You can find them there. They are about twice as expensive as 2X media, BUT DAMN..... Its GREAT to burn a PS2 game in 15min....

NO... He's not kidding... My machine LOVES the DVD-RW discs... They have a tendency to be quieter than my -R discs.....
Although as Dust said, media will have a great deal to do with it...
The DVD-RW disc that I use is a Verbatim.....(I only use it to test, but at least I know they work)
