like to put in a cd rw drive.
i have 750 mhz with a duron processor.
what other things should i know when hooking this up.
Basically with newer drives (those with Burn-proof or SmartBUrn etc) you can run just about any speed you want. I am running a 16x burner (with burn-proof) on a 500meg Celeron and have yet to burn a coaster due to a buffer under run....so with your 750 (or it looks soon to be 1 gig) you should be able to burn at any speed you can afford.
The second ares to look at for successful burns is the media itself, try small samples of several diffeerent ones at the speeds rated for you burner until you find one that is consistantly reliable.
