Hi, Is there a way to mark a regular CD (not CDR or CDRW) in any way? I'm working on a projet where we inspect CDs for our clients and have to mark them as "inspected". Of course, we can use paper stickers etc, but it would help us tremendously if we could use some kind of electronic marks. Can...

Hello all, I have a pretty old computer, it is a p3-450, 448 MB RAM, 12.7GB (75% free) boot drive with a slave 4GB for data.

My Sims disk went bad. I tried to contact Maxis, but was unable to find a link on their site to e-mail them. I went out and bought a new copy of the Sims. I'd like to be able to make a backup copy so I don't have to buy a 3rd one, when this one goes bad. However, when I tried using Nero to copy...

On a new PC (wich is black) there's a sh|tt# CD-ROM drive that is fast but has none of the features required for proper CD ripping (no CD-TEXT, no overread, no C2 error report). I...

Hi. If I choose a file or files on my HDD, and make an audio CD, I am I believe burning CDA files onto my CD. So, a CD with CDA files is an audio CD. Correct? But, what if I want to choose to burn an MP3 file or files onto my CD, what kind of CD am I making then? And, with NERO 5, how do I do...

Greetings, I've just purchased a JVC XL-R2010 stand-alone recorder and it seems to only want to recognize Maxell blanks. I've tried Fuji and TDK and it will give me a "No Audio Disc" in the message window. The CDr side spools up OK but when I go to copy (from CD or line-in...it doesn't seem to...
