Question: What do I need to turn off while I am burning a CD? I know that I should turn off my screen blanker as well as quit any programs running in the background. Is there anything else to worry about?
Answer: To be honest, we, the authors, turn absolutely nothing off when burning a CD. Our screen blanker continues to run and does not interfere. Sometimes we type in texts during burning -- without any problems.
It only becomes critical if a program crashes (so only use stable programs), or if a program takes up lots of processor time at a higher priority. We have been told that the switching of high resolution screens on graphics cards can cause a buffer underrun if the graphics card driver is set to a higher priority. We have not encountered problems using normal AMIGA-Screens.
