I apologize for missing some important parts of my message. I'm using Windows XP. I guess I have got an answer to my query, from a friend in town, since I wrote to the group. He said that his CD burner does not recognize all makes of blank CDs. Since my laptop recognizes these with no problems, I think that is the problem. What do you think?
I used the XP burning software before, and Windows Media Player to make audio CDs, and I think it is a Roxio program on my laptop. I ended up transferring the files through my home network to the laptop, and burned them that way. When I get the time, I'll try a different brand of cds and see if that makes a difference. What a pain! Thanks again!

It's obvious you have a question or you would not be posting, right? Please take note of the new subject line. You don't mention was OS you are using. Always state which one you are using. You also don't state which CD burning programs you are currently using. XP has software built in to write to CDR's. Different CD burning software has different ways of using it (especially XP's version), hence the need to know what you are currently using. -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner Want to exchange links with us? http://OrpheusComputing.com ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lori Bucevicius" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thank you to Keith and Gerry for the answers to the thumbs.db question. Much appreciated. I have another query. I have a cd burner on my computer. I've used it with several different programs for making music CDs with no problem (all of the programs came with my computer). And on my laptop I have a program that I can make data CDs. None of the programs I have on my desktop seem to be able to make data disks. Do I have to have a program? It seems to me like I do, because the computer isn't reading that I have a blank CD in the drive. I want to back up some larger folders onto CDs instead of zip, and am a little frustrated at not being able to. Can anyone recommend a good, but value priced program? Thanks so much!
