Can't read DVD in Windows Explorer after burning

[CrispinH]

I've loaded up ImgBurn on a 64-bit Vista Ultimate machine to burn an ISO image. The burn is verified, but nothing is coming up in Windows Explorer.

 

I'm using Verbatim 4.7Gb media with 16x speed capability. Log file attached.

 

Any ideas anyone?

 

Thanks in advance.

I 12:37:55 Source File File System(s): None

That image doesn't have a filesystem and that's why nothing comes up in Windows Explorer. Googling the image's name came up with this page from Dell Support with the instructions:

Custom Instructions for OM_6.1.0_SUU_A01.002.iso:

This is part 2 of 2 of the ISO file.

Download all ISO file segments into an empty subdirectory on your local hard drive. After you have downloaded all the file segments, run the following command to create the ISO file:

copy /b OM* OM_610_SUU_A01.iso [Windows]
cat OM* > OM_610_SUU_A01.iso [Linux]

Note: If the wildcard format above does not bring the file segments in the right order, run the following command instead to create the ISO file:

copy /b OM_610_SUU_A01.001.iso+OM_610_SUU_A01.002.iso OM_610_SUU_A01.iso [Windows]

cat OM_610_SUU_A01.001.iso OM_610_SUU_A01.002.iso > OM_610_SUU_A01.iso [Linux]


Use your DVD burning software to create a DVD from OM_610_SUU_A01.iso

 

By the way...

There's newer firmware available for that burner (remove any disc and close the tray before updating then reboot after it's finished).

Thanks. That's done the trick. And thanks for the tip about the firmware. I've updated that too.

You can also make a .dvd or .mds file (via the tools menu), add both parts of the image to it (in order) and then burn the .dvd/.mds file (where ImgBurn will then combine both parts logically when it burns). That'll save you a bit of time + disk space merging them into 1 big file.
