Whenever I try to burn an audio cd using Nero, my cd writer makes a lot of noise. Observing the process carefully for some time revealed that noise is generated only at the end of each track. Anyways, I tried to find a a fix for this, and here’s the step by step solution to the problem- Step 1 . Go to System Properties>Device Manager and select IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. Step 2 . Double click on the CD writer IDE channel and select advance setting. Step 3 . In the advanced settings dialog, change the transfer mode to ‘PIO Only’. Step 4 . Restart the computer. That’s it. No more irritating noise now. Enjoy!
This is my mindless rambling.
