    Your drive does not support 80+ minute media?

    the cd aren't really 99 mins.
    If you look at the media info on your cd burner
    it will show you

    703 Mb & 80 mins

    I bought a sample pack of 90mins & 99 mins
    and both cds say the same thing. I dont think
    they make them that long.

    No mammacas,

    90 and 99 discs do exists, but your drive doesn't support them (or potentially the software you are using for the information).

    Just as cd-rw.org said, 90 and 99 min cd-rs do exist. I use them all the time, they're great for divx! It's just that not all drives are compatible and you need to use software that supports overburning like Nero 5. Nero reads the 90/99min cd-rs as regular 700mb discs until you overburn the discs.

    How do you overburn the discs. I have some files i want to put onto disc(900mb), nero thinks there 700mb discs. I dont know if its my drive or nero that is the problem.
