CDRW reading speed too slow

Have you tried reinstalling your burning software? Also try upgrading your motherboard bios in case there is a fix for this problem.

I recommend updating the Chipset drivers for the new motherboard.

You may also have conflicts from leftover registry settings and files from the driver for the old motherboards.

If you have problems with the updated drivers. delete the CD drives and IDE controllers from device manager, and allow windows to re-install the correct drivers for the new motherboard.

I think it is you IDE interface or the settings of IDE interface in the BIOS can handle this. At you old motherboard what is your IDE interface there? Is it with advance feature, over a new one?

Also are you using the same software for burning? Is that software updated? Also the lates IDE driver....

In the BIOS setting for the hard drive, also check that settings and make sure your hard drive are running in correct settings or set the UDMA to AUTO. I think you have low trasfer rate at younew motherboard that's why it also affect the CD-RW speed, And this may caused by the setting in the BIOS.

The ribbon cables should be connected as follows for the best transfor rate. The main hard and the CD-ROM should be on the same cable primary). The CD-RW and if you have a second hard drive should be on the secondary cable. The reason for this isdata transfor rate. If you have the two CD players on the some cable ribbon problems will happen in the transfor of data. Some is you have the main hard dive and the CD-RW. Check the jumper switches for drive for each cable, set one to master andthe other to slave. You can set both to cable select.
Good Luck
