dreamlinux not booting..

recently i downloaded Dreamlinux thru torrent ..
when i burn it to the rewritable cd...it get smooth..

now the prob is that the cd is not booting also
the contents inside are not showing
if it shows somehow it shows very late...what may be the prob...

i ve also done the manual md5 hash check..it is fine..
so is my Dreamlinux got corrupted or something else..

Burn at about 1x.

Yes imgburn is much better than nero image burn.

At 1X? He'll be sitting a whole night just for burning a disc?

That is the whole hope. It took me to burn Windows Vista 1 hour but the job is done and i lost about 5 dvds using nero and buring at high speeds.

40% completed at 6x....
how come u lost 5 dvds u must be using cheap media or
yr nero is corrupt..

Nero creates problems only when other applicatioons are using memory in the backgroung. Though you may not experience your computer slowing down, but it greatly affects the use read buffer. See it for yourself. Try writing with 10 applications working in background, then try burning without any of those applications. Notice in which case is fluctuation in buffer is more.

Would you mind checking the CD within windows using a emulator tool?.

Do let me know.

Does that cd read slow within windows? Then either your cd is of low quality or scratched or your cd writer's lens needs to be cleaned.
