Run-time error ?57?
Device I/O error ?H:vri-bi98\about\vri-bi98.bmp?
Checked errant disc for cleanliness, found very small ?grease spot on outer edge of shiny side of disc.
Removed using gentle breath & wiping with a very soft tissue from centre out. Tried disc & all systems go.
With vinyl records the method of running the tissue round the edge is a no no for CD?s, you do wipe from
centre out as a scratch running round with the data stream results in the laser beam servo system losing its
track.
