I was stupid! I dragged and dropped files (jpgs) onto a CDR on an ME computer, and expected them to read on my XP laptop. Now I'm left with a CD filled with pictures, but my laptop says the CD is unreadable. (Says the disc is empty, imagine that!
I've been reading up on UDF and other issues, but haven't been able to figure it out yet. Does anyone have advice as to how to read this CD
Thanks so much

Or close the CD. If you close it you will not be about to write to it any
longer.
