Hello again,
I have remade the image, about five times or so. No luck :( I
was using Adaptec Easy CD Creator 3.01 to try and burn it from windows.
One interesting thing I noticed however, was the while in windows, it
didn't just kill the CD like normal, it hung at a certain point in the
burn process -- not hung as in crashed, but rather, it didn't make any
progress after a certain point. I let it sit there for about 15 minutes
before I killed the process. That is what led me to believe that I had a
bad batch of CD's. Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve
