altered_aaron Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Hello, I was able to burn several audio CD's, but whenever the tray re-cycled and began to verify, the program would do nothing. ImgBurn says it's "analaysing sector?, track 2" but then nothing more. I hit cancel and ended the program with no problems. And the CD's sounded great too. I'm just wondering why the verify doesn't work on audio cd. I think the verify works when burning ISO, but I haven't tried that in years. I'm on dialup, so it's not like I can test it by downloading an ISO file. I mostly need ImgBurn for backing up my files on CD and making music discs. Which it does a great job too, by the way. Not only that, but this is the best and (only?) burning program for Windows ME that still works. My operating system is Windows ME. My drive is a "Mitsumi: CR-48X5TE" aka "Hewlitt Packard CD Writer Plus." Computer is HP Pavilion 7845 (from year 2000, stock, only added RAM, everything else is same including CD Burner.) (hehe, Yeah i know my computer sucks) Should I just turn verify off? Will it matter if I do? I'd like everything to work perfectly, but on this computer I'll take what I can get.

mmalves Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Disable the verify option before burning audio discs but have it enabled when burning data discs, as to make sure that your data was correctly burned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altered_aaron Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Hi again. I just burned a data CD of over 4500 Jpegs, and ImgBurn was able to verify at the end, no problems. So everything worked fine. I've burned a few Puppy Linux ISO's in the past, and I didn't have any problems verfying those either. It just turns out that Verifying audio CD's is the only thing that causes ImgBurn to freeze on my old Windows ME computer. I can still hit cancel when this happens, and the music CD still gets written. I'll take your advice and merely disable verify next time I burn audio. I'm just curious why it happens. But no big deal I guess. Otherwise, very fine program, it's the best. Thanks for still supporting older versions of Windows. I'm going to hang on to my copy and put in a safe place, because this program is like my lifeline for getting data on and off my computer. Only alternative is the floppy disk drive.
