[SaF] DIRECT-PC program

2001-05-08 Thread Itzchak Gilboa
The program Direct CD allows one to use the CD drive as a floppy, and to create a DATA CD that is available through a drive letter -- just like a floppy disk. Is the anything like it for a DVD drive? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system

Direct Cd does not allow a cd drive to be used as a floppy, it allows a cd-rw drive to be accessed like a floppy if you are using cd-rw media at the time. A DVD drive will not be able to do this, you will need a dvd-ram drive for this. DVD drives are read only, like cd-rom drives. -
