Well, your problem could be that u need to use a CD-RW and
not a CD-R, CD-r is write once, once u write one file to
it no more can be added

Utter bull****! You can add more to it if there is space on the disk, =

I beleive that windows xp closes the session. u dont have
a choice to close it or not. if u use Nero or some other
cd burning app, u r right. but i guess u know that
already ;)
