0 gi7omy Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Completely (it actually went in EMC 10) Vista has its own packet writing system and XP uses Sessions (but only for CD and not DVD) Personally, I got fed up uninstalling it myself (I wouldn't touch it with a 40 foot barge pole as its reliability for archiving/backup is close to that of an igloo in the Sahara) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XP doesn't seem to be able to handle either CD-RW or DVD-RW on my system; or even better how to fix XP so that it can packet write successfully?

0 gi7omy Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Actually it does sessions writing (a lot safer) but only on CD But the bottom line is, if you want to keep your data, do NOT use packet writing - buy a pen drive If XP isn't working correctly, there's a fundamental OS problem - it's time to haul your data over to the pen drive and (before Bruce says it) 'Format C:\' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
