    Check in the device manager if the IDE channel for the DVD/CD drive is stuck in PIO mode. If it is then delete the affected IDE channel and reboot the PC. Windows should automatically detect and install the necesary drivers. The affected IDE channel should now be running in Ultra DMA mode and then check your burn speed.
