Tho I can't answer your question as to what the error means exactly, I do
know
one thing -- you don't need to format recordable CDs. The ones you have are
CD-Rs, not CD-RW (which do need to be formatted before use I believe), so
they're
write once only, and will be formatted correctly by your recording software
when
you burn them. And the reason that CDRWin won't write to them is that when
you
formatted them, you basically trashed them for recording anything else; why
CDRWin didn't spit an error at you is strange to me, but that's been a
quirky
little program for me, so it's not exactly surprising. Hope that helps!
