Hi all,
I'm having a bit of difficulty with reading a cd's in older cd readers which i've just burn't with my Philips 48 speed writer. I'm using Nero and was wondering if there was any setting that I could use which will also me to read them in older drives. Thanks Gareth |
Gareth - Do you have the drive details ? Make/Model/Firmware Revision ?
A lot of older drives will struggle to read recordable media but it may be fixable with a firmware update. |
Don't older drives struggle with multi session CDs? Do you 'close' the CD when writing it? Note you can't write anything else to the CD once it's closed.
|
Hmmm, Just had a thought which may help. CD's written by my 48 speed philips writer can only be read in another writer, is this strange or what ?
The drive is a Philips 48a (I think) Thanks all Gareth |
As Chris said, ensure you close/finalise the CD when burning. Many older CD-ROM drives will then be able to read it.
Cheers Ian |
Do you get this option when writing an ISO image?. I've just downloaded Redhat 8 as ISO images and i've burn't them to cd. I'll check, but I don't remember seeing an option from within Nero.
I'm taking my company laptop home tonight to see if that works, as i'm sure it does. Thanks again Gareth. |
