    I burned some data onto a DVD-RW as a multisessoin disk on deepburner and then deleted the files off of my HDD. I then put the same DVD-RW in and burned some more data to the disk. However now when I look on the disk there is only the data that I last burned onto the disk, and the data from the first burning is no longer there. However the disk is still full from all of the data I put onto it, so I know that the files are still on the disk. The question is how can I get the data off of it?

    Any help is appreciated as I really do not want to lose the data that I have on the disk and deleted off of my HDD.

    Thanks

    This keeps coming up, and may I repeat what Nero has announced long ago: Multi-session burning is not a reliable technology, especially for older PC systems. So with RWs, try add new stuff by burning all over again.
    Having said that, it has also been suggested that updating your firmware might sometimes help solve the problem. If not, then you may try use programs that would help you salvage the files (e.g. PC Inspector [free], IsoBuster [commerical]).
    Good luck!
