| 278927 | 2004-10-07 21:20:00 | Sounds like multi-session all right. I burn CD's by assembling all the content first, then burning it all at once. If I use the XP drag and drop, then it caches them and when all are ready, I do one burn. Never try burning one at a time. If using Nero, I open Nero, drag all the programs into it and when complete, burn it. Burning one at a time is asking for trouble I believe. Plus its not needed. |

| 278928 | 2004-10-07 21:26:00 | As said it's either the multisession issue, or the fact those mini disks are often extremely difficult to operate in a number of drives. | whiskeytangofoxtrot (438) | ||
| 278929 | 2004-10-07 21:51:00 | Hi again. Jams: >> some PC's have real trouble reading them. they destroyed 2 CD-ROMs of mine. =Sounds ominous. Will take more care in future. Just find it takes ages to fill up the big disks, and don't like over-using same one all the time as disk may deteriorate or if I stuff up in a big way, I could ruin the whole disk and my saved programs. Not a good thought! Godfather: >>Sounds like multi-session all right. Thanks for that advice. Still learning re: copying/burning/writing to disk. WTF: >>As said it's either the multisession issue, or the fact those mini disks are >>often extremely difficult to operate in a number of drives. = Will copy properly as GF says. Also I noticed on friend's computer that the CD-Rom dirve drawer had a circular indent you just laid the disk on, whereas my laptop has a small centre part that held the disc firmly. Regards, Marg |

The spindles that a disc sits on in a laptop would probably help, though I've seen plenty of drives with the smaller tray size for 8cm CD's still not cope with the discs. |
