So many of you were so helpful last time, I'm hoping I can past this
latest problem.
I have a box of brand new CD/R platters from Office Depot. I place a
blank CD in the drive, format it using Microsoft's format option when I
right click on the drive icon in my computer. Everything goes just fine..
I back up my files to the CD, remove it, and replace the CD I generally
have in the drive, a colletion of reference works.
When I go to do another backup, the system freezes. I go to My Computer,
click on the d: icon, and I get the hourglass/wait thing, and it never
goes away. I have to manually shut down, use a paper clip to open the
drive, etc.
This has happened with three of the CD's in the pack. Every other CD I
have works fine (although I've never tried to write to any of them, since
they are pre-packaged reference CD's).
Is it possible I have a bad pack of CD's??? It's just maddening. I've
never heard of this happening consistently from one CD to another.
Thanks.
