Help with cd-r
jd_...@hotmail.com
appreciate it. I was given an older computer, a HP Pavillion that was
bought new in 1999. The computer has a cd-rw that uses Adaptetic
DirectCD. I just bought a container of 50 Sony 700 mg cd-r disks. The
first time I used one I was able to save some files to the cd. The next
disk I tried to use the computer gave me am error message saying that
"DirectCD is unable to determine the state of the media in drive M: We
recommend that you run DirectCD's ScanDisc utillity to repair this
disc. Please select "ScanDisc" to start." When I ran the scandisc it
said the disc was seriously damaged and not repairable and if I
continued to use the disc I would probably encounter errors. Now I have
gone through about half of the container and I have been able to use
only 8 discs?!! Did I get a bad batch of cd's? I have never used cd-r's
before but this doesn't seem right. To go through 20 discs and only be
able to use 8. Perhaps my cd-r software is corrupt. But why have I been
able to use some discs then? Is it normal to have certain amount of
cd's defective in a package? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Can
anybody recommend any programs that might be able to fix my cd's so I
won't have to just throw them away? Thanks.

What versions of Windows, DirectCD and Ezcd (from the properties of
executables)? What's the make and model number of the burner (in Device
Manager?)
ScanDisc is a joke. Don't let it fix -- ruin -- the problem discs.
When you eject the discs, didn't DirectCD prompt you something about
closing?
Run IsoBuster and post back what it says:

to storing data. Is the error occuring during the format.
If it's an HP writer with HP software, you might want to see what happens
when you use that software to master the media. This is preferable to using
Direct CD. In the event it's not using HP software (Veritas I believe), then
it may be using Roxio ECDC, a better writing package.

disc into the drive and the disk will not be formatted but an error
appears and it seems that the DirectCD Wizard 2.5d cannot determine the
state of the media in the drive. Then it suggests I use scandisk to try
to fix the error. The software that came with the computer is Adaptetic
DirectCD.

impractical. One is that you are writing more slowly than the Sony discs
like. That will sometimes result in a readable disc, sometimes one that
cannot be read, and sometimes one that is read with difficulty - slowly
due to many retries.
Please see one of the usual references for information on CD recording:
the CD-R FAQ or the primer at my WWW site. In particular, few people
recommend packet writing (effected by DirectCD) for general use. Though
it is acceptable on write-once media (CD-R), it is unreliable or worse
on erasables (CD-RW).

That drive may not support 700m disc. See if you can find an 8x burner
like PlexWriter 8/4/32. You don't want burners faster than 8x as
DirectCD 2.5d doesn't support them.

Supposing packet writing indeed burns defective 0's and 1's. But how do
you determine that, Mikey? By measuring the error rates when you don't
have a drive reporting error rates?

I think that a C2 error is a C1 error(s) that couldn't be corrected
with the C1 error correction capabilities. They're not independant,
they're basically the same thing except for which level of error
correction can correct the error. You're using a program that just
doesn't report C1 errors, as indicated by the fact that the "C1 error"
part in your screenshot is greyed out.
Now I know why you can create disks that have no C1 errors.

If the problem in fact lies with the error rate of CD media, mastering
should be just as unreliable as packet writing, isn't that right, Mikey?
Why then are you harping about how unreliable packing writing is, but
not about mastering, Mikey?
