Ok, hope this is where to post this.
I am trying to burn some albums that my brother has. I use music CD-r's, so the people do get some royalties, so I know I can burn.
The problem is that every once in a while, a CD freezes.
What happens is that I used Media Player 9 to record to my library. Then I take those songs and burn them to the CD. Usually this works, in fact 99% of the time it works no problem.
But sometimes the files convert with no problem, copy until about 3/4 way through then get stuck on a song. This lasts about a minute or two and then continues. Then it closes, until it gets to about 99% closed, then it doesn't stop. It just keeps going, faster and faster.
To stop this (the stop key won't work) I need to completely shut down the computer and take the disc out. When I try to use it again, it says that it is full, but nothing plays!
Is this a common problem with XP, do I have a bug, or what? Also, when it does this, if I put another CD in it usually works. Are the CD's bad (brand new Memorex Cool Color CD-R)?
I have a hp a410e with a AMD Athlon XP3000.
Thanks.
