  • Cd-rw = Cd-r?

    Hi everyone,

    I recently copied a .iso image from my return of the king play disc and backed it up onto a cd-rw disc. I used 'Alcohol 52%' to create the image and 'nero' to burn the image onto the cd-rw disc. This was just for testing purposes. The funny thing is, that the cd-rw disc now recognises itself as what seems just like an ordinary cd-r disc, probably due to the fact that an exact replica of the data on the original cd has been created on the cd-rw. This shows by the fact that the data cannot be erased when prompted to (message pops up saying something along the lines of 'not a cd-rw disc'). Has anyone got any ideas as to how I can erase the data off this disc, or have I just wasted my $2 on it?

    Thanks,
    Geoff

    Make sure "Ignore Media Type" is disabled in Alcohol.

      Ok, so that prevents the cd-rw from thinking it's a cd-r but i was wondering whether something can be done about deleting stuff on a cd-rw disc that already thinks it's a cd-r.

      Thanks
