Comment: I have a cd writer and have been trying to record cds. I've used cd-r and cd-rw disks but still can't use them on other computers. It's quite annoying. I can call it up on my computer, but not on any others. I'm using the software that came with my computer. It's called justburn! can anyone help me.

Reply: (edit)make sure that you write the disk to normal standards ie ISO or joilet. And make SURE that you FINALISE (close/finish/end) the disk. If posssible try not to write multiple secessions as some older drives can't read this. If you have done all i mentioned and still no better how about trying different brands of media.

Reply: (edit)Older CD drives will not read the formats used by CD writers. Try the CDs in a NEW Drive, 40x or faster, and you will probably have no problem.
