And, with another disk burned (from the same batch of disks), from a different drive (my CD-RW drive, this time, primary on the secondary IDE). Same error. I think I'm going to buy a DVD. I don't trust the burning software on my mom's laptop at this point, nor do I trust the remaining disks I have. I haven't, it should be noted, tried them on another computer. I'll do so tomorrow to verify one way or another. So until then I'll just lurk around for a while. -- PIT
