It still keeps giving the same error messages. Something about an opc and input/output errors.

Before when it was working fine, I had it setup as scd1 in the /etc/fstab file, so I dunno. MCC shows the burner as scd1,/mnt/cdrom2 and the reader as scd0, /mnt/cdrom which is the way it was before. I guess I'll just keep playing with it. Some magic combination works, although I thought I had set it back to exactly they way I had it before. BTW, the CDRW stuff on it works fine - I burnt some CDs, including disk to disk copying with Gcombust just fine. K3b won't even do that though. Something is up with k3b, something I suppose I don't have set just right, that I did before. Thanks for the reply/suggestions Anne. -- /\ Dark> Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
