Windows XP will not display the contents of any CD that has been burned on
someone else's PC. All I get is an empty folder with the status line reading:
0 bytes used. My CD-ROM drive is otherwise working fine. I have tried going
into "Folder Options" and making sure all the relevant file types to be
displayed are checked, but it makes no difference. As far as Windows is
concerned, the drive contains a blank disc. Any suggestions?
