Installed 4x CD-RW, but can only burn at 2x?

[Electrode]

Hey all. Yesterday I did a round of upgrades, part of which was replacing the 4/4/24 CD-RW drive in this box with a brand new 12/10/32 CD-RW, and moving the old one to another box.

Now here's the problem: The old CD-RW appears to be working just fine, but when I open up Nero 5.5, it says the maximum write speed is 2x! I was able to burn at 4x before, so what is the problem? Has anyone else here had this happen?

Relevant specs:
CPU: Pentium 3 866 MHz, running at 1040 MHz
Chipset: Intel i815e
RAM: 384 MB
OS: Windows ME

Burner is secondary slave. Secondary master is a 4x CD-ROM. 40-wire cable connected directly to motherboard.

Try making the burner as the master for now and then place the CD-Rom as Primary slave. Make sure all DMA's are enabled. Also try burning from the HDD and see if this will change the speed record of the burner.

switched jumpers around, setting burner to master and cd-rom to slave. works now.
