Ultra DMA mode 2:33.3MB/sec

You might have to update either your CDRW's firmware or your CD burning program.

i have the most updated nero program .
when i put blank cd on it shows write max 40 when it is empty it shows 52 max.
but the blank cd i put is already 56 x compatible.
and also read speed is 40 max.
i have 2 seagate 1 maxtor disk.2 seagate is in uata100 mode i made it with seagate tool.
but my maxtor is uata66 mode.
and cdrw is yata33 mode.
how can i make it to uatat100.
is this problem arise from my motherboard?
its model is
Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
07/30/1998-i440LX-ITE867-2A69JF99C-00
FOR 6LX66 AGP/PCI/ISA MODE BIOS VER:A13 128GB BETA
Intel 440EX/LX rev 3
how can i learn that my mother board supports what ide speeds?
thanks

So, either the CD really isn't 56x speed compatible, or your system just can't burn that fast and Nero is throttling back.

No, they aren't. Your chipset WILL NOT RUN ANY FASTER THAN ATA-33.

Buy an EIDE controller card and a CDRW that supports ATA-100.

It's an LX chipset.
