Two things come to mind, either your batch of media is garbage (it happens) or your o/s or hardware has gone bad (unlikely unless you were doing something with it). Can you read all of the files on a previous media? Can you boot to "another operating system" and try a burn? Have you tried a batch of another vendor's media? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
