Assembled cognoscenti; just wondering about an explanation (if any); for anomalous results when burning an audio-CD. The problem was to burn a compilation audio-CD; so it could be played on the audio-CD player on my mini-hifi system There are two "boxes" identical OS and application; application on box I aborts burn twice; seemingly complaining about discontinuous audio stream; application on box II completes without problem. Box I: 2.8Ghz dual core CPU 2GB RAM ; IDE CD/DVD burner SATA HD Box II : old Intel server-board 2.4GHz dual core x 2 Xeon CPU's and 2GB of RAM; CD/DVD burner is IDE with adaptor card so that HD and CD burner; are both on the SCSI bus connected to Adaptec 39320 LVD SCSI controller; in PCI-X slot. thanks Rohan McLeod
