Nero burning VERY slowly on good media.

VIA chipset. I have no other devices plugged in other than 2 HDD's on my RAID, a single IDE drive, the NEC DVD-RW, and the mobo.

I just upgraded to SP4, no change. It still takes ~2 minutes for Nero Express to run when I click on something in StartSmart. :sigh:

Next, I'll uninstall NERO, do the clean install of nero 6.6.0.19. I have no idea what else to try other than a clean install of Win2K, which is a major undertaking.

Now that I've installed SP4, uninstalled Nero, done the clean-pack routine, and reinstalled, I can't even get Nero.exe to run. It shows up in task manager, and just sits there, never shows up onscreen.

No one else has a suggestion, I guess I'll take the primary hdd out and reinstall win2K SP4 on a spare drive... maybe that'll cure it.

what motherboard is it?

what motherboard is it?

Not 100% sure. Its a VIA PIII board.

Our latest plan is to just flatten the machine and reinstall.
