Is your DVD-R/RW working slowly on Windows Vista based computer?

Are experiencing the slow read speed of the DVD-R/RW than expected speed on a Windows Vista based computer? On a Windows Vista-based computer when you finish recording an optical disc, such as a CD-R, a CD-RW, a DVD-R, or a DVD-RW disc and to record the optical disc, you use the DVD-R/RW drive, and you select the mastered disc format. Then, you will notice that the read speed of the drive is much slower than the expected speed. This slow read speed causes the Windows Vista operating system to take more time to copy files from the drive.

The reason for this slow reading is when the system is writing the disc, the drive uses a slow speed. However, some drives do not automatically set the drive speed back to the default speed after the system finishes writing the disc, and the system ejects the disc. Therefore, poor performance occurs when the system reads the disc again. So what's the solution? If you use a built-in DVD drive, you must restart the operating system, or you must resume from hibernation, to reset to the default speed of the DVD drive. If you use an external DVD drive, you only have to restart the external DVD drive. And if you want to automate this process a hotfix is available on request here.
