I just built a new computer (900 MHz AMD Athlon, 128 megs ram)and I have yet
to get my burner working 100%.

I have my burner (8x4x24x) hooked up to an IDE cable by itself, but i have my
48x cd rom as the slave of my hard drive. I'm using Easy CD creator. It lets
me burn stuff to a cd from my hard drive without any problem. When I try
copying a CD from my 48x cd rom to my burner it basically freezes my system
without even starting the test/burn, or at about 3% completion.

Any ideas as to what is cauing this problem? I'm thinking a separate IDE
cable for my 48x cd rom might help, but i didnt think it should make that
huge of a difference.
