Thank you all for your support and I am very pleased that mostly all user have no issues with KB3...
I would like someone to try something out for me on another KB3 install that has no problems. This is going to sound really weird please bear with me 1. Can someone try to burn a Data CD and burn only MS-Windows .EXE files 2. Can someone who has XP burn some files - any type onto a CD....Then remove the CD from XP session and then use KB3 to erase the disk. Right now I cannot get KB3 to erase a CD let alone burn an iso image!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are irregularities away from CUA with selection of files in the top window (directory/files listing) using SHIFT+CLICK....I have written a bug report for this. I am amazed that some one has not done this. AND Konqueror has bizarre handling using SHIFT + CLICK. There were a number of other issues I noted with the usability that I thought were very limiting. To suddenly find a Linux application presenting a Dialogue box is very strange. The one thing I first loved about Linux was the absence of dialogue boxes that locked you out of the application until the Dialogue was satisfied. There were a few other issues I also noted, but as I cannot even erase a CD at the moment without a debug or attempt to burn without a debug I am sort of stopped in my tracks. I know what you are probably thinking that Scott's gone mad about the 1 and 2 scenario, however I have a suspicion as to what's happening. I await our next therapy appointment cheers to all Scott 0-) > > The safest procedure in K3B is to.... > > i) create iso image... > ii) then burn iso image > > as two separate actions, this will work with CD data burns nearly always > in my experience (DVD is a bit more complex).
