While I empathize with your situation, Larry, I believe there is a
difference. In my situation, the CD-Rs are reported as being
successfully burned. The problem is not discernible until attempting to
play in a CD player. Unfortunately, I suspect your problem may be the
same as mine. Our drives are on their way to that eternal sleep. ;0)
