More help needed on the topic: Can't open a home Burned CD. "Access Denied" Error!!

[Arvis N.]

I burned a CD-R for my friend, and he can't access it on his computer. He
gets a "Access Denied"
error. It is an error indicating that the user has insufficient security to
open the CD.
I found this problem recently at work when I burned a CD-R of .jpg files for
a coworker
to take home to use in his work related project. He got the same "Access
Denied" error. And this
CD was made on one of the computers at work. I verified it later here at
work on an other computer
he had logged into with his password. It is definatly a security issue. I
know for a fact that all the
..jpg files burned to the CD had no special security. They are all set to be
accessed by "Everyone"
in Windows 2000 Pro. My coworker has windows 2000 at home too and he is
always logged in
as the administrator.
Has any one else had this problem? How did you solve it?
Thanks for any help.

Arvis.

It could be a compatibility problem between the two machines, or the second
machine just doesn't like the format used to burn the CD.

A CR-R drive may have problems with a CR-RW generated disk if the media is
marked to allow future additions to the media.

Depending on the authoring software used to burn the CD, there may have been
multiple industry formats available and the one the author used is not
supported on the target machine's CD drive.

Volume size may be a factor - older CD drives are limited to 640MB media
while the newer drives will take 700MB disks.

When burning the CD intended for use on another machine, stick with the
lowest common denominators - 640MB media with a single track with no
allowance for additional files - unless you know for a fact the other
machine can handle the additional features.

CD's do not use NTFS as their format, generally speaking, which means
NT-style access rights are not carried over with the file(s). The old DOS
attributes are all that gets recorded (i.e., read/write, archive, system
file, hidden file).

How did you burn the CD? What burning software did you use? Is it an ISO?
Did you use packet writing software to burn the CD ... Direct CD or InCD?
Was the CD finalized, or was it left open?

We need details, lots of details.
