Dvd Read Errors

[Techrookie]

I copied a number of pictures to a DVD before re-installing Vista and since there were a lot (4.38GB out of the 4.7) I created 3 folders. When I try to read the DVD in Windows Explorer it hangs for a long time and finally I see the folders listed but when I try to access one Explorer hangs again then stops responding. I ran the CRC read test in Roxio DVDInfo Pro and got the errors below:

 

Drive - TSSTCORPDVD+-RW TS-L632D

Media ID Code - SONY S11

Media Type - DVD+RW

Is there a way to correct these errors or get rid of them so that I can read what's on the rest of the disk? I have over 1000 pics on there and I need to retrieve them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. (If I should post in a different forum let me know please).

 

Thanks a lot.

Hi

I recovered my files except for 1 which was bad using the following free program:

 

http://www.roadkil.net/program.php?ProgramID=29

 

It very easy to use and worked well. There are other apps on the site which could

be usefull.

 

Thanks again for the help.

You're welcome, and I am glad that you were able to recover most of your files.

Excellent!

 

And thanks for the Roadkil site too

It looks like you got a bad burn to RW media. Try a program like CD Roller or ISO Buster to recover the data. Neither are free, but they will allow you to see if that data can be recovered.

 

You would be better of burning to +R or -R DVD media.

Thanks. I'll give one of these a try.

Let us know if you recover your data.
