I am using Roxio Cd Creator 5 Platinum with the latest updates. I am also running Win XP.
here's how it goes: I have a music album 70 minutes in length as one uncut track (I work with many of these). I take that track and use Sound Forge 6 to cut this track into about 10-12 single tracks. These single tracks are saved as .wav files. I then use Roxio to write these files to a cd. now, the hardware being used is a 16x LTR cd-rw drive. By choosing the disc-at-once write method I am able to write these music tracks to a cd WITHOUT ANY DELAY BETWEEN TRACKS. I have just installed a samsung 48x drive that supports roxio cd creator and is win XP compatible - stated right on the box. Since installing the new drive and performing the sameprocess I can no longer eliminate the delay between tracks. I have uninstalled and reinstalled platinum ? same problem. I have unistalled platinum and installed creator basic that came with the drive ? same problem. I have used three different media types ? same problem. I have slowed the write speed down to 8x ? same problem. I have used several different files ? same problem. I have also tried all of this on a 48x Artec cd-rw drive. I haven?t yet formatted the hard drive to start fromscratch but at this point that is the only other thing I can think of trying. I would like to avoid this option if at all possible ? I?m sure most would agree.
Any ideas?

With Roxio, to eliminate the 2 sec delay between tracks, make sure that you are selecting DISK AT ONCE. This forces full Red Book compatibility.

Anything else will result in the delays.

Not sure if this will work with CD-RW's, but works fine with CD-R's
