Speed Up Starting Of CD/DVD Burning Software

Whenever you Burn your data onto a CD/DVD, you might have noticed that it takes time to open the software. Either you use Nero or Roxio or any other software, it takes time to open. You can speed this process by making some changes in the services. Some of the services used by this software are not required and can be stopped. This will make the process much faster. Lets see how.

  1. Go to Start –> Control Panel –> Administrative Tools –> Services.
  2. Select IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service and Disable the Startup Type.
  3. Click OK and Exit.

You will now see the difference. This makes the service much faster then your previous experience. However, if you are using the Windows XP CD/DVD burning service, then you might not see this service, and if you do then disabling this won’t have any effect.

    I did do this when I came to learn of it a few months ago. It does indeed speed up as you said, since it disables the useless default burner.

    I’m just curious what would be the impact of this though?

    Well, as vijay said, it will disable the default burner specially in Xp. Apart from that, if some of the services attached to it are disabled, it will have less burden on its shoulders on booting time. :)
