  1. I've been thinking about buying the PIONEER DVRA06 Internal DVD Burner but I'm concerned that my computer might not be able to handle it.
    I'm using a Packard Bell Computer,Windows XP Professional, Intel Celeron Processor 467mhz with 192 mb of RAM.

    I've read that the minimum requirements are:

    DVR-A06 drive requirements:
    Pentium III 500MHz or faster
    Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows XP, Windows 2000
    128MB RAM or higher (256MB recommended)
    Available 5.25" drive bay
    IDE controller with available connector
    10GB OR MORE free hard drive space

    DVD video disc creation requirements:
    Intel 800 MHz Pentium III minimum or equivalent (1 GHz or better recommended)
    256 MB RAM
    video capture capability (1394 interface or analog video capture card)
    1024 x 768 or higher video display adapter


    Is there any chance that this writer could work on my system?

    I hope I've provided enough information, I'd really appreciate any advice

    There is always a chance.
    Can you upgrade the processor from what it is now?
    If you could put a PIII in there instead of that Celeron, that might do the trick.
    Also more RAM wouldn't hurt.

    Problem with pre built boxes, you are very limited with upgrading since they want you to just buy a new one.

    Next computer, consider building it yourself!
