I've been trying to burn a file onto my cd-rw and have not had any luck, it kept delivering a "file too big for cd" kind of thing. Now, I knew that the file would fit the CD, because it was an image that was designed to fit on a cd. The file recommended i use Nero for burning the image. So i went into a section of Nero that I can select "overburn", which warns "may damage CD" and "may damage Cd writer" and "use at own risk". You guessed it, i selected that little bad-boy option. Now guess what? My goddamn cdwriter won't work, but not only will it not write - the little fucker won't even read - it just green lights for 30 seconds any time i put anything in there. Boy did i feel like a complete jackass. Then i went looking on Nero's site and found that my cd-burner is "overburn capable", i'm taking this, perhaps erroneously, to mean that i didn't just completely f up my cd-burner. Is anyone experienced in overburning? My cd burner is still detected in device manager, and I've uninstalled the drivers via device manager and upon boot my computer redetects the cd-burner - so its really not an issue of cd-burner detection within windows - its more of an issue of a complete breakdown in the read-write process. I'm a tech and I'm destructive than any computer novice I've ever met, with my incessant toying and tweaking.
