There's something else going wrong here. I use an XP Home system for archiving. I have 512MB of storage and burn 4.7GB DVDs all the time on it. I can even burn and run Photoshop at the same time. The size of the memory isn't related to the size of the disk being burned, unless something has eaten up the buffer.

I try to use Windows 2000, because of
the problems that I had with XP Home and
XP pro.
