Wow, you can mount a CD in these things now? I haven't been keeping up. Anyway, your progress matches my experiences. I'm not completely sure, and I've never run the thing under Win95 with the bundled software, but the guess I came away with was this was supposed to be some sort of 'feature' -- you're supposed to put a new disk in before the thing will talk to you again. I don't have a Windoze box to try this on to see how it's handled there. You might try that and see how it works there. It was a consistent error and didn't effect my operation in the least so I let it go. I highly discourage people from playing with written CD's in my $600 CD-player, I'd rather they use the $100 CDrom sitting next to it. :-) Good luck and godspeed, Brian
