Hi-
I'm burning all of my brothers files from this computer onto cd-r's (he's in the army, moving to germany in a month). The burning was going just fine, I finished about 15 cds, but then I ran into trouble.
I am using windows XP, so I drag the files from his D drive onto the F drive, to copy, then I click "burn these files to cd."
The windows cd burning wizard asks me to name the cd, I do that, then it starts burning, and after a few minutes, an error message pops up stating that "There was an error while burning this cd. The cd may no longer be usable. What would you like to do with the files? ... ..."
I tried over then, with the same batch of files (mp3s) and the same thing happened. It does ruin the cdr. So then I moved on, and it worked fine.
Until it happened again, with a different set of files (again mp3s).
I moved on to a bunch of programs compressed with winace, and the first folder failed. Then the second one worked. Then the third failed. I've now wasted 5 cds...
So I came here.
Does anyone have some ideas of what I can try doing to remedy this?
Thanks in advance for the help,
dm
