Copy better than the original? by
I just copied a brand new Hyperion CD. I then ran the Nero Disc Quality
program to determine how many C1 and C2 errors there were. The results were
superb. The maximum number of C1 errors was 28; there were no C2 errors.
As a matter of curiosity, I ran the original disc through the same test. ...

2 burners at the same time by
I have several burning and ripping programs. I also have 2 burners. Is it
possible to rip a CD on one burner while burning a wav file on the other,
using 2 different programs. So far I haven't been able to; the computer
reboots when I try it.
Thanks,
Norm Strong

Missing data by
A couple of years ago I recorded some data to a CD, then I recorded
some more data to the CD. When I checked the first session had
disappeared. I know it's there because the space available says it's
there but it can't be seen.
It's not desperately important data but it irritates me to...

Will a player switch between different compression types? by
Let's say you have a CD player that will play mp3 files; it will also play
wma files. Now let's imagine a CD-R with 3 hours of mp3 music, followed by
3 hours of wma music. Will the player seamlessly switch from mp3 to wma in
the middle of the disc?

How do you unpower a hard drive? by
My backup HD is in the same tower with my main HD. It turns on when the
computer turns on--naturally! What I'd like to do is turn on the backup HD
only to add or subtract information, then have it turn off so that it
doesn't contribute heat and doesn't wear out. Is there a simple way to do
this...

Trouble with Lite-On LTD-163 by
This is a DVD-ROM I've been using for the better part of 2 years. The last
6 months, it has been going downhill. It has difficulty recognizing a CD.
Frequently it will fail to see the CD until it times out. When that
happens, of course, I can't play the CD; I have to use my burner. Also,
it's...
