I have a CD-RW Disc that contains digital photos. I want to clear all files from the disc but when it is inserted into the drive the photos start to show on the monitor & fill the entire screen leaving me nothing to click on to get back back to My Computer to click on the drive to get the files removed.
What canI do?

Irene, when the CD opens press control/alt/delete to open the task manager. Then stop the CD application which is running.
then open my computer, right click on the cdrom and click on explore.
Once inside the cd delete all the files.

Some HELP in posting on Cnet plus free progs and instructions Glad to Help!

or insert the CD and hold down the left Shift key to over-ride AutoRun.

Then use Windows Explorer.
