Hi,

I have 2 Creative CD-ROM readers (24X & 48X)
and I must say they are REALLY bad
(specially the 24X one).

Recently, I was unable to backup a CD using CDRWIN
because the 48X drive refused to read past 5% from the original CD.

To fix this I set up the MAX speed to 8X
and then I got no problems at all!!!

Is there any program that can slow down
my CD-ROM drive while using Windows 98?

Thanks for any help.

Cesar Mendoza
