   I am having an intermittent problem reading 80 min CD's  they are memorex
.
  I know it  Supports them and I don't think the drive is defective  I
beleave it is  some kind of BIOS setting  or bad Firmware
    I am using a 8438E CDRW  on the 2nd IDE cable as the master  and a 2nd
CD Rom as a slave  I tried swapping the  the drives, now all I have
connected   is the CDRW  It Still will not read the CD'S( 80 min) all the
time . It only reads them 1 out id 15 times.
 I have a 800 MHZ PIII
            256MB SDRAM
            Vodoo3 card
            A-trend Motherboard ( ACT 7040 )
            Win ME
             EZcd Creator 5.02
             NERO 5.0
             NTI CD maker 2000 Plus 4.2.65
 I also  format my drive and reinstalled  still no luck !!
