CD-RW problem after upgrade to XP

John Mericle

After upgrading my Compaq Presario 5900T from Win98se to
XP home edition, I cannot read the files that were burned
previously on an existing rewritable CD in my CD writer.
I get "C2UDFFS.ISO" as the disk label. Also I can't read
a rewritable CD in my DVD/CD player-Same problem. When I
open the readme file that appears when I try to open the
disk, it says "This disc uses the UDF file system. You
are currently looking at the ISO part of this disc. To
read the content of this disc you have to install an UDF
file system reader."
Can anyone tell me where I can get an UDF file system
reader for Windows XP?
The drives are there and recognized, and I can play a CD
in DVD/CD player with Windows Media Player. When I try to
use CdQuadrat-Just Data to burn a disk, it says "SCSI
error: no SCSI host adapter found" - Then "no CD recorder
found".
I was using CeQuadrat for burning CDs but I guess it
won't work with xp, so I'll have to buy new burner
software.
I have a lot a data files on a couple of RW-CDs that I
really need to be able to read and copy.
It all worked b4 Winxp upgrade.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks, John M.

Packet writing software is bundled with the two most popular cd r/w software
packages - Nero and Roxio.
I don't think they're compatible, so you'll need to reinstall the same
software that you wrote the cd's with.

While XP will natively read some implementations of UDF, it will not
read all. Depending on which package you used on the previous system to
write the disks, look for either

UDF Volume reader (udfreader) - hunt in the downloads at www.roxio.com
- if it was Direct CD

or
EasyWrite Reader at www.nero.com - if it was InCD
