Re: Broadband affecting CD playback and CD burning

Thanks for all the replies so far.

I have a newish PC with 1GB Athlon processor.
The broadband is through an ethernet adaptor which is USB connected.

I have been rooting around in the system setup and have found the following:

DMA is on Channel 2 for floppy disk controller and Channel 4 for Direct Memory Access controller

I have 4 devices sharing the same IRQ: 2 USB ports, sound card and NVIDIA GeForce 2 (graphics card?). This doesn't quite stack up as the reason.

I have PCI bus and DMA controller sharing the same I/O address. I am not a hardware expert (!!) and PCI is a video adaptor isn't it?

Any further thoughts?
