    Before doing anything else, I think you should test the CD in another computer.
    I've had perfectly good CDRs suddenly go bad. I nearly replaced my CDROM drive
    thinking it was defective, only to discover that it was the CDR itself (which
    had been working fine just a few days earlier). CDRs are not as "permanent" as
    the manufacturers claim - I just threw out a whole bunch of 50 CDs because they
    proved to be so unreliable.

    regards,
    Robert
