The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

InCD suddenly not correctly formatting CD-RW

Asked by dberkowitz in Hard Drives & Storage

Tags: incd, cdrw401248uex, tdk

I'm not sure if this is the right area to address this, but no other area seems more appropriate.

I have been successfully using Ahead InCD ver. 3.27.1 to format CD-RW disks for about a year.  Suddenly, the software has stopped properly formatting the disks, though it goes through the motions and reports that the disk has been properly formatted.  When I look at the disk with Windows Explorer it shows that the disk has been recognized as an Audio CD.

The problem seems to have sprung up out of nowhere.  I'm using the same stock of disks on the same TDK drive as I did the last time I was successful (maybe two weeks ago) and I have installed no new software since then - to the best of my knowledge.  I did uninstall and reinstall the InCD software on the theory that the original installation  might have become corrupted.

I'm not having trouble reading from or writing to CD-RWs that I previously formatted on this same drive with the same software.  and I'm able to burn to this media with Nero just fine.  I just seem to have lost the ability to format the CD-RW media in UDF format.

The CD hardware I'm running on is a TDK CDRW401248UEX and it's connected via a USB 2.0 port if that is significant, but this is the same setup I've been using for the last year.  The OS in WinME running on a Pentium II at 233 MHz (just barely meets the software specs, but again, it's been working without a problem until recently.)

Does anyone have a clue as to what might be going on?  The Ahead web site doesn't seem to have anything to offer.
