Thanks for your very useful information. I will try installing Direct
CD on my XP system and see what happens. I have a very old version,
and hope it will work (pre the turn of the century). It sure seems
like Microsoft is making it harder and harder to understand how their
software operates. I was very much involved with personal computers
from the 1970's, and used to write programs under CP/M and DOS, but
when Windows came about, everything got too
involved and expensive to keep the hobby up. Thanks for your help.
Do not install your old DirectCD on your XP box! It will not work and it
will mess up your drives and you'll be back saying you're getting error
messages and your drives have disappeared.
Either go to the store and purchase a current packet-writing package
from Nero or Roxio or whoever as Jim suggested OR simply burn to CD-R
with the Sonic you already have. Read the Sonic Help file or have a
knowledgeable friend show you how. It is very easy and your CD-R's will
be completely readable in any machine.
