I bought a dvd burner a month ago and was burning at 1-1.25 hours... and thinking that was a "normal" behaviour ... until I read this thread.

I guess my problem was from an ancient drive on the secondary IDE.

For those who wants to read more and what the exact procedures are, here it is the (supossedly) referred article:

EDIT: And thanks to LocalHero too!! He was right on spot, too.
Thanks for the link, I bookmarked the page in hopes to help someone else who is having the same problem. I was frustrated for almost 2 weeks before I found this thread.

Seriously, thanks again I feel like I have my computer back
