Help
I just tried playing a burned cd made sveral years ago. It played alright
a month back, but today nothing - no TOC or audio was found. I tried to play on
several players, but no avail.
Could the recording media have gone to hell already? Another cd of the same
manufacture burned at the same time plays O.K. Now I'am really stumped!!

Is there something different about the way you stored it or handled
it? Left it under a bright light or in an area of high humidity? Even
leaving a CD-R in a CDROM or CDRW drive might (ironically enough) heat
it up a bit, depending on how big a fan the computer has, how much
dust is in the vents, etc.
There's lots of info at http://cdrfaq.org/

Get the program at this website:

Load the disc into a CDROM and see if that program sees anything.
