Experience
Hi, I have been doing this spot here for some years now, and I like to think that I have helped a few people here and there, but due to advancing years and failing health, I'm afraid that I have decided that I can no longer carry on since I can no longer guarantee to be able to answer questions in a reasonable timescale. I should like to thank all the other experts and the users of this site for what has been an enjoyable and enlightening experience. I shall be terminating next Sunday 12th November 2006.

Answer Hi Catherine,
Have you ever burned a CD before? I'm not being rude you understand, but just trying to find out what may be going wrong. It almost sounds as though you are formatting the disks before trying to use them. If you are new to writing CDs etc. I'd suggest you check out www.videohelp.com , it has an awful lot of good user guides to most subject concerning CDs and DVDs. If you still need more help, fine, but please tell me exactly what you have done, with which software, and what results you got, then I may be able to help more.
