cdmaker Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 I copied most of My Documents to a CD ON HARD DRIVE My Documents/Sub-Folder had 7 folders and 63 files for a total 70 objects ON CD My Documents/Sub-Folder had 3 folders and 32 files for a total 35 objects Any suggestions on what caused the difference? Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot? Thanks
Martin H Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 You need to enable the options for including hidden/system files.
cdmaker Posted October 27, 2006 Author Posted October 27, 2006 You need to enable the options for including hidden/system files. Thanks for the suggestion. But... I do display hidden files. I also show the attributes column in the folder list. The folder is almost all .doc files. No hidden files there. Also, seven sub-folders are not hidden. They contain more .doc files. What shall I try next?
JasonFriday13 Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 lol! Martin_H means the hidden/system attributes in ImgBurn. Also, the recursive subdirectories in ImgBurn should be ticked.
cdmaker Posted October 29, 2006 Author Posted October 29, 2006 lol! Martin_H means the hidden/system attributes in ImgBurn. Also, the recursive subdirectories in ImgBurn should be ticked. I checked in Imgburn. Those are checked in Imgburn. I should check whether the ISO is complete. How do I look at the ISO I created in the BUILD step. I can check if the files or folders are missing at this step. Any ideas?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 You could probably just go by the information panel once you've clicked 'Calculate'. It shows you the number of folders / files that will be in the image. You could also mount the ISO in DAEMON Tools and view it like a normal drive via Explorer.
lfcrule1972 Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Don't forget to let us know how you get on

I used UltraISO to look at the hard disk image. All the files and folders seem to be there. That means that the files and folders are missing on the cd, but not in the hard drive .ISO. At least the problem area is smaller.
lfcrule1972 Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Basic time - I presume the total Docs size was not bigger then the CD size ? Well might as well eliminate the obvious first.... Can you post a copy of the ImgBurn log ?

Can you post a copy of the ImgBurn log ? Sorry for the time delay. I hope you are still paying attention. I made another backup today. The same problem repeated. I found at least two sub-folders with short lists of folders + files (about 50% complete.) The files on the hard drive ISO file are complete. Also, the file names in the ISO are limited to 8 chars. How do I fix that? But files are missing from the CD. I am attaching imgburn.log as requested. IMGBURN.log
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Use Joliet instead of UDF. There was a problem with my UDF implementation on old Win9x based OS's that didn't/doesn't show up under XP etc. That has been fixed for the next version (it was fixed a couple of months ago in 'beta' versions - which of course you don't have access to, sorry!).

SUCCESS!! File system: "ISO9660 + Joliet" as you requested. I checked two sub-folders of 72 files/folders and 60 files/folders. The CD and Hard drive numbers match. I counted folders. The numbers match. Also, the CD had no verify errors this time. On the previous Write, write speed was set to MAX. I changed Write speed to 12x for this Write. The CD is "12x10x32x". The Description area states "Current Profile: Unknown (FAILED!)" Do you think Write speed = 12x made any difference? My next project is copying an audio CD. I assume Imgburn does NOT write audio CDs. I own NERO 5. If I install any part of NERO will it interfere with Imgburn's operation? NERO 5 is an older version. If you have other suggestions on how to make an audio CD, I would like to know. Thanks again.
polopony Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 You are correct no audio cd's Nero wont interfere with IMGburn The CD is "12x10x32x". thats a pretty old cd writer maybe older that the MCC specs drives go by now audio cd I believe can be made with Windows Media Player ,WinAmp,Nero
spinningwheel Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 Or you can try this little gemBurrrn.
