This also happened with the Favorites folder, and, in all cases, I accepted the new names. You may 'accept' or 'delete' these files'. My theory of the problem in copying the Favorites folder is that it has something to do with the very long names of files in the folder.Įven the 'other' 100MB folders that were burned without any problems, during the 'drop & drug' step, had an error message 'Some files aren't compatible with the Joilet format. However, the Favorites folder on the CD is 1MB when right-clicked, but when the CD is right-clicked it indicates 17MB of space Used and 0MB of Free space on the 700MB CD apparently repeated Burning got the Favorites folder burned onto the CD, but messed up the remaining storage space on the CD. However, now when I opened the burned CD, the Favorites folder was there on the CD, and it appeared all of the sub-folders were copied, consistent with the original Favorites folder and the burned Favorites folder being the same size. So I placed the CD back into the Compaq, with the DeepBurn burn window still open, and I clicked the button again, with Failure again, and I repeated that sequence about 4 times, after which the display still indicated the last burn Failed. However, I noticed that when it Failed, the %Completed bar indicated 90% complete. QUESTION: if slowing the speed to 2X solves problems, is it possible to slow the speed more, and solve more problems?Įven at a 2X burn-Speed, burning my Favorites folder (only ~1MB) failed. I solved that problem by changing the burn Speed from 'Max' to 2X, and I then successfully burned folders that were >100MB (onto 700MB 52x CD-R CDs). I then had a problem with burning 'Failure' when trying to burn anything but individual files or folders with only a few files.

I did have a (solvable) problem during the drop/drag with some filenames not being 'compatible' (see below). However, I solved that problem by simply opening the folder containing the folders I wanted (from my Win98 Compaq) and successfully did a 'drag & drop' into the window with the CDROOT icon. I got to the point where you instruct 'Browse to the folder you want to add to your project, highlight it and click on OK.', but the button does not get highlighted so that it is functional, i.e.

Tony, thanks for your nicely detailed guidance for using DeepBurner.
