Re: help burning cds! Posted by Denis Rouleau (from: 192.58.194.4) on February 02, 2000 at 08:10:09: In Reply to: Re: help burning cds! posted by Felix on January 30, 2000 at 16:12:37: Here are my two bits. Make sure you are using brand name CD-R. Some bulk/no-name CD-R are almost transparent and cannot be read by all CD players. I speak from experience. My wife's car CD player will only play those bulk CD-Rs if I put black tape over them. Not a great solution! As for your volume problem, If you can play regular CDs in your burner then everything is connected OK and I can't really say where the problem is. However if you cannot play regular CDs, then check the audio connection to your sound card. My Turtle beach Montego has one input so I choose to connect my CD-R to it instead of my CD-ROM 'cause I play more with the former ;-) Good luck. Denis : : Hi, : : Okay I am still having problems burning cds... I have the Adaptec Easy CD Creator software. I tried to burn cds, but it only plays in my cd-rom drive, not in a regular cd player. I selected the option to make an audio cd, not a data cd... and I did click at the beginning to 'close session'. Although I don't think the session closed because next time i insert it it says Im on session #2! And the button is not clickable to close the first session... : : Also yesterday I erased a cd and reburned it. It shows that those tracks exist on the cd, but even when I try playing it in my cd rom drive it has no volume at all!!! What is the prob??? : : Need help ASAP! Thanks : : ~Jen~ : Hi Jen : Sounds like you are trying to burn re-writeable media and then using it in your audio cd player?? Well if this is the case, it usually doesnt work. You need to use write-once-only media. Also burn at a low speed, like 2 speed or single speed. As far as no audio from your cd rom drive...sounds like a different problem.. Do other audio cd's have volume? If not check windows mixer, or cable that connects CD rom drive to soundcard. : Cheers : Felix Follow Ups: Post a Followup Name: E-Mail: Subject: Comments: : Here are my two bits. : Make sure you are using brand name CD-R.
