I just did. That was from your post. You are the opposite of someone
(Ted and Herb) who wants a safe world. You want an unsafe world where
people retaliate against you for the murder of their families.

F*ck me dead. I'm always amazed at suppliciants who spit in the face =
of
people who answer them. But as you are a complete moron and antisocial
personality that uses InCD, no more need be said.
=20
I see.

I'm actually beginning to enjoy you Candy. You're a welcome diversion =
on
a slow day around here.
I hope you're a chess player :-)))
So , according to your direct quote above, people who use InCD are
"complete morons" and have "antisocial personalities"...or are you =
just
discussing me personally in this context ?
And exactly what educational background and psychological history do =
you
have to make such an assumption......and better still, can you inform
the group in your next post the exact reasoning behind this Mensa =
level
data point? :-) And I'm still waiting for you to paste in the comment
from me that equates to "flying airplanes into buildings. What's the
matter, can't you find it; or perhaps you're too busy working on
Fermat's Last Theorem ? :-)
I'll hang in there with you for as long as it takes to get these
answers, or until I get bored with you; one or the other .
Try direct answering in your posts instead of all this dodging around
will you please? It saves bandwidth.

I must say that I've had more fun reading this thread than anything else
I've seen on Usenet in a long time. I figured that my
less-than-complimentary reference to W and his dad might evoke a little
bit of knee-jerking, but this is amazing.

Messrs. Macklin, NoNo, et al, why not see if you can get someone to help
you take the hook out of your mouth.

Your friend must have a CD-RW drive and also may have to have InCD installed
to use the CD-RW you formatted for him. If you gave him an unformatted
CD-RW or a CD-R he could have placed the file on it. I'd suspect your
friend does not have a CD-RW drive or is not aware of how to use UDF packet
writing software to format and use a CD-RW as intended. If he has a CD-R
drive and is buying CD-RW CD's and using them like CD-R's he is wasting his
money unless he plans to upgrade in the future. If he has a CD-RW and is
purchasing CD-RW CD's and using them like CD-R CD's he is again wasting his
money. Basically a formatted CD-RW looks like a coffee coaster to a system
that doesn't have the software and hardware capable of seeing what it really
is. The best way to describe it is it appears full, finalized and void of
any files. I imagine that there are also incompatibilities between
different UDF packet writing software to but I wouldn't know as I've always
used Nero. XP's default program is adequate for anyone with a CD-R but is
useless for use on CD-RW disks.

"I hope this question is ok for this group. I'm assuming it might be as
it involves XP's default CD program and CD's.
Yesterday, I asked a friend of mine to download a 50meg program file for
me on his high speed connection because my dial up was too slow. The
plan was for him to put the file on a CD for me and then I would
transfer it to my computer later.
I have Nero InCD installed and use that for my CDRW when I need back up.
I'm having no problems with it right now.
What I did was format a new blank TDK CDRW in InCD and give that CD to
my friend to use after he downloaded the file.
He explained to me today that the file downloaded ok but when he went to
transfer it to the CD I had given him, it wouldn't transfer.
He used a blank CD of his own to put the file on and gave that one to
me.
I think my friend just uses the supplied XP CD recording program on his
computer. He tells me that he doesn't format his discs but just copies
things right to them.
Can someone please tell me why the formatted Nero InCD disk I gave him
wouldn't work on his machine? Should I just have given him a blank CDRW
without formatting it in Nero?
Thanks much,
Dudley"

Thank you Bernie, for the reply. I appreciate it.
The problem wasn't my friend's drive, but rather my own lack of detailed
knowledge on exactly what's involved with CD's generally.
I have a Hypersonic high end computer that came with both Roxio and InCD
already installed on it. I've had a real time learning how everything
interrelates. I got rid of the Roxio because of an alleged Apeptec
driver conflict and decided to stay with Nero because I use the drive
for data backup that needs "adjustment" from time to time.
I knew that XP has a burning program but have it unchecked in "allow
recording" as per Hypersonic's instructions.
Up Until last week, I was having a problem with InCD. It was crashing
the box during the disk formatting procedure. The new version BTW
corrected that!
I posted my question here because I didn't realize that formatting the
CDRW in InCD would require another computer to have InCD installed to
use the disk. Reason for this was because I have had other people burn
something on a CDR on their computer; give me the disk and then I've
opened it and been able to work with it on my computer which has the XP
program unchecked, but InCD installed.
It never dawned on me that it wouldn't work in reverse :-))
Thank you very much for taking the time to explain things. I've learned
a lot here about CD's from some very good people.....one exception noted
of course! :-))))
Thanks again.

You dumb ¢ünt! You specificaly stated, "Windows native CD burning support
does not support CD-RW, formatted or otherwise. Regular CD-Rs use the
CDFS recording format, while CD_RWs use the UDF format." WTF does formatted
or OTHERWISE indicate you âsshole! You even implied that ONLY CD-Rs can be
used in XP burning software.

It is obvious you cannot even understand your own words. It is also clear
that you implied that CD-RWs cannot be used with XPs native burning software
"FORMATTED OR OTHERWISE"!

You also need to read the ENTIRE thread. The OP stated he formatted a
CD-RW
with InCD for Packet Writing. Windows does not support Packet writing. I
explained why the Op could see the disc on his computer but his friend
could
not.

You are the f*cking d*mbass for shooting your mouth off without
knowing what you are talking about. Get a life, and while you are at it,
