I am using a Plexwriter 16/10/40A on an 98SE with 256Megs a 933Hz/370 on a Aopen motherboard. It seems that I have a problem with some CDs that have 'old' programs that fail to run (3.1 or early 95) then the system refuses to read the CD even if I remove it and then reset the system. It reads other CDs but not certain ones. Is there a registry 'list' I can edit or remove? thanks Dennis Dittmar Maspeth NY The NOSPIN Group provides a monthly newsletter with great tips, information and ideas: NOSPIN-L, The NOSPIN Magazine Visit our web site to signup: http://freepctech.com
