    I thought this would probably be better off in the Storage forum.

    The Storage Mania sub title is "Hard Disks, CD-RWs, DVD-RWs, Zips and other removable media." thats why Rick placed it here.

    56x definantly has to much warp speed

    I have somewhat a problem with my 56x CD-ROM. During some high speed installations, it seems to go soooo fast that it skips a file. Which, in turn, causes the installation to automatically abort. Whether it's a high speed mechanical problem, maybe some disks themselve not cut for such high speeds (does not happen to every gaming CD), or a faulty driver (which has no update :mad: ), or whatever may cause this malediction, I may very well use the above tatics to remedy this problem if it does not sieze.
