"Burn has failed" - but it works

This may not be worth looking into as I'm playing with a

*slightly* obsolete system!

 

When creating a data CD, Express Burn gets about 60%

of the way through the Lead In/Lead Out stage (judging

by the progress indicator), then says "Burn has failed.

Please try a new CD or lower burn speed." However,

the CD is readable afterwards in both the CD-R and

other CD-ROM (not CD-R) drives, so something is working!

 

I get the same result using both of the available burn

speeds (1x and 2x). I haven't tried many different

brands of CD yet, though.

 

Express Burn is the first CD burning software that

has worked at all, so I'm far from disappointed! Good work!

Thanks! I'll keep playing!

Hi,

are all the files present and readable on the CD (notabvly the files in the last few folders)?

 

If you would contact me (craig@nch.com.au) I will send you a diagnostic version to resolve your problem and hopefully get a complete burn.

G'day,

 

On the CDs I have made, everything is readable. But so far the amount

of data has been under 100MB, so I'm not sure what would happen if I tried

to fill a disc. Haven't tried an audio CD, either.

 

I'll email you though and try the diagnostic version.

 

Thanks very much!
