XP SP2 & Unziping Files To a CD

[Guest]

Hi. I was trying to unzip some driver files I downloaded
off the web and was going to unizip them to a folder on a
CD-RW using XP's built in zip utlitly progam but a I got
an error code saying it couldn't unzip them to a CD-RW.
Can you not unzip straight to a CD-RW or do you have to
unzip to a folder your create on the hard drive first
then burn the file to a CD-RW? That's they way I did it
anyway. Just wondering if you loose quality unziping to
the folder on the hard drive first then burining to the
CD-RW rather than just unzipping it to a folder that's on
CD-RW? I don't think this is SP2's fault. Thanks, Craig.

There will be no loss of "quality".
