123118 2003-02-22 00:38:00 My first CD burn failure - using Nero.CR-R process failed halfway through with error message "Invalid block address". What does this mean? If I retry to burn the same compilation will it happen again? Suggestions please. Shortstop (632)
123119 2003-02-22 02:12:00 Bad CD-R ... or failed drive... my 2 bets... what cd-burner do you use?

123121 2003-02-22 02:22:00 Ok... If that is the case... I would say, restart the PC, turn off all unnecessary background programs, make sure the surface of the CD-R is not damaged / dirty etc and re-try burning at a slower speed...

Shouldn't be a problem this time around if you take those steps. If you still get the same problem, I would look at changing to a different type of CD-R and re-trying the burn process again.

Not really a science, but more an art to burning a CD. ;)

Let me know how you get on.
