    I am using the latest version of VCDeasy. After burning succesfully, my Sony CD-RW (Multi Speed (1x 2x 4x) and my High Speed(only 4x - 10x)) had trouble erasing. I've been trying to erase them, but after clicking Erase this Cd in Windows Xp, it erases very quickly then the disc is blank. But, after a few seconds, the Cd folder is opened and the files are still there. I tried ERASING with Nero and VCDeasy but both dont work too. Please help me.
    Even if this forum is posted, please still help me.
    My driver is 24x1040

    IM NOT SURE BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU MAY HAVE SELECTED CLOSE THIS DISC (I THINK ) OR WHAT EVER FUNCTION IT IS THAT MAKES AN ERAESABLE DISC PERMANENT. I GET CONFUSED BETWEEN TYHE DISC AND SESSION SETTINGS

    I am the one who posted this thread.
    And the answer is Yes, but only the discs that have been burned with VCDeasy acnnot be erased.

    :blink:

    That is quite interesting. Actually, I recall a friend having problems erasing RW's with Nero... What he had to do was just 're-use' the disc, so, for example, burn 700mb of data onto it. When Nero asked for the empty media, he put the CDRW in, and Nero says (as it always does) do you want to Erase this medium? That worked, IIRC.

    Otherwise, only burn off VCD's that you want to keep ;)

    anyway, after the problem i occured with vcdeasy, i've never burned any more audio tracks. Maybe its a problem with my computer or my cd driver.
