Hi, I am a newbie here so please be gentle with me if I sound a complete dullard..........


I have constructed a new PC (Athlon 5000 XP Black, 2MB  RAM, Geforce 8600 Graphics...) running XP Pro...all the software loaded fine & the PC is running very well. I am using SATA drives for the first time, 2 x DVD recorders & my HDD. The HDD seems to be running fine; the recorders playback films etc with no problem...however if I try to copy a disk using either Clone DVD or Clone CD the PC freezes at some point (always different) & then the only way to get it working again is to reset. I have contacted Elby (the manufacturers & they are out of ideas)....I also tried the software on an IDE DVD recorder to see if it was a software problem & it worked first time as it used to on my previous PC. As someone with limited experience it appears to me that the problem is something to do with the SATA drives/drivers maybe. I cannt find SATA drivers for XP on the web . I am at my wits end & seriously considering going back to IDE as it never gave me any problems. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
