read cd

I have recently used TDK cd-rxg audio cds for audio, video and software.
only today i copied a d/load of maths program for my daughter, only to find when i took it round her machine her cd-rom would'nt read it, i took it home and read it fine through mine, so i unzipped it, then copied it to cd... still no luck????
whats going on

I have checked her cd-rom and it reads other cd's fine, including some previous TDK cd-rxg audio cds.

any ideas

Thanks

 

If her cdrom is over a couple years old, it might not be able to read burned cds. Might want to check to see if you can find updated firmware for it. Hit that problem a few times myself.

Sorry, I can't give you any specifics and no, I'm not trying speculate or voice opinion on something I have no direct knowledge of; however, I do remember reading of a problem with TDK media 4-5 months ago. Unfortunately, I didn't pay much attention and didn't read the whole bulletin. It had to do with specific drives but I can't say much more than that and don't remember much more than that.

 

OK ill just not use tdk no more, and burn prog to another cd, thanks for the info.

 

Thats exactly the message I didn't want you to take away from my comments. TDK is a good company and you may be drawing the wrong conclusion - I was just trying to give you a potential lead to investigate. In retrospect, I shouldn't have said anything.

Believe me, if what I read (scanned) in any way implied that TDK was putting out an inferior product, I would have remembered.

 

TDK had a bad batch get out? Wonder who got fired?
Most unusual.
