Anyone know about this problem and how to fix? Thanks. Don't know anything about Reserve Track, but I do know the only thing a formatted CD-RW is good for is permantly losing all data. A formatted CD-R is almost as good at losing data permantly, but generally the data can be recovered if you are willing to pay for a recovery program. I'd suggest you don't want to format the disc.

peterrichard30 Posted January 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Hi, I haven't lost data, I'm formatting blank discs so I can write to them. I've already gone through a couple of now unusable CD-Rs that say "unrecognizable data". It always worked ok before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already gone through a couple of now unusable CD-Rs that say "unrecognizable data". It always worked ok before. Note what has happened to your previous CD-Rs. That is why Packet-Writing is NOT a good way to go. If you want to save data, use a Sessions-Based program, such as DataCD. If you want to transfer data, try a Flash drive (aka Jump drive, Keychain drive, Pen drive, Thumb drive). Lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
