Dwi on cd

DDR Gunstar · Trick Member Joined: 17 Jan 2003 Location: Tennessee

i burned all the dwis for my friend on to a memorex cd-r and it worked fine on my mac but he has a windows and the disc wouldnt load on his windows. Is there something i am doing wrong or is there a program he needs to see the dwis. The folder contains the dwis, the banners and the mp3.

Thanks for the help

ok are you sayin that when you try to play it that it doesnt read there being any disc in the drive or that it wont install when you try to make it install on his comp....cause when i tried to transfer it to another comp via disc, it somehow lost the install file, so maybe if that is what you are talking about, could be what is wrong. sorry i couldnt be any more help

Was your CD formatted in HFS or Fat32? I'm guessing HFS or HFS+ since that would show the symptoms you describe on the Windows machine.

If it was formatted in HFS or HFS+, only Macs can read that format.

However, Macs can read and format Fat32 as well, which Windows *can* read. Try burning another CD in PC format (Fat32) and see if it works.

I'm assuming you have ToastTi on your mac or something

When you burn a Data disc make sure it's set to Mac+PC Hybrid (on the options drop down beo the CD Data type cateogrys)....

Try it then...

i just now tried to do the mac/iso hybrid and put the stepmania under iso but it wont let me write the cd because i need to put something in the mac spot and the only thing there is the hard drives. Then i tried the iso 9660 and clicked write cd and it says:

Sense key illegal request
Sense code 0x20
invalid command operation

Whats am i doing wrong!?!
