    I just got back from vacation and popped in a cd i put pictures on from my vacation. It says it doesnt have any files on there but i know it does because the disc had the pictures on them at the computer i used on vacation. In the properties of the disc it says there is 0 used space and 0 free space. I dont know if i finalized it or not. Does that matter? I have three different dvd/cd drives and non of them can read this disc.

    Does any1 know what my problem culd be and how i coul fix it?

    hi my friend, unfortunatley i cannot help but i have the exact same problem, the disc works on the pc that i burnt the cd-r from but wont show anything on my laptop.

    my cd-r is photos too and it also says 0 space used/0 space free when i insert it.

    i think it needs to be finalized. My problem is i cant get to the computer where i made this cd-r so i cant finalize it. Someone mentioned isobuster or imgburn will do the trick but i dont know how to use it
