Solve : formatting a cd rom?

Answer»

I just burned a copy of the Christmas pictures from my digital camera, traveled 3000 miles and went to read it at my PARENTS house only to find that I forgot to SET the FORMAT so that the CD can be read by other drives. Is there any way to correct this without the computer that I burned the cd on?  Any help would be appreciated! Which, software did you use to burn it and can you get a hold of that software?On your software, hit the button that says format CD. This will format everything for you. Then simply burn your pictures on to the CD.

I just burned a copy...I forgot to set the format so that the CD can be read by other drives...

CD-R or CD-R/RW?  CD-R/RW's cannot be read in most CDROM drives.It's really NOT in your question, but just for everyone's information...... CD-RW's can NOT be read in CD/Stereo players either. Just FYI...

They work in mine.  They cannot be "packet written", as in Nero's INCD or Roxio's DirectCD.
