<pre wrap="">I just tried burning the Nero version of the test CD. I unzipped
the file and double clicked the .nrg file and Nero burned the
CD. Windows explorer can't see the data files and it crashes
Windows CD player. I tried playing it in a DVD player that plays
audio CDs and it reports no supported files found. Nero disc
info shows track 1 as a data track and the rest as audio tracks.
The CD is not compatible with anything I have. Nero 6.3.1.1,
Win2Ksp4.

Has this been resolved?

Many users have burned this disk with no problem. <br>
<br>
Are you sure you have burned a good disk? <br>
<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>This disk is a MIXED MODE disk that combines CD-ROM data and
audio CD tracks.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>This is not a normal CD_ROM.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>This is not a normal audio CD.</li>
</ul>
<br>
It is a combination of the two. When you place this disk in a computer
CD drive, you will (or should) only see the CD-ROM data part of the
disk. *The audio tracks will NOT show, and will NOT automatically
start playing. *<br>
<br>
<br>
Go to the Windows 2000 Start menu and do Start -- Programs --
Accessories -- Entertainment, and select the "CD Player" applet (Not
the Media Player). . You will get an on-screen display that looks
like a car stereo CD player with start, stop and track select buttons
and a volume control. Use this software "device" to play the audio
tracks. <br>
<br>
<br>
In a non-computer audio player such as a boombox or DiskMan (or a
CD-ROM drive being used stand-alone outside of a computer), the drive
may mistakenly see the first (data) track as a defective unplayable
audio track and do nothing. If so, use the track selector button to
jump to the next (first actual audio) track.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Note that the single file "CDplayer.exe" located in the SYSTEM32 folder
underneath the main Windows directory on Windows 2000 systems plays
this disk very nicely, but is not present on WinXP systems. This
utility works perfectly on Win XP systems to simplify the playback of
this disk. <br>
<br>
This file is a stand-alone .EXE that doesn't need any installation,
supporting DLL files or registry entries to run -- just copy the file
from \winnt\system32 on a Win 2K system to any convenient place on an
XP system, and then double-click it to run. <br>
