Default Can't read older cds
I'm trying to read my older cds that I burned back in 2000 and my dvd burner won't read them. I don't get an error msg or anything, sometimes it thinks its a blank cd.

I think I used Nero or Adaptec Easy Cd Coaster back in the day when I made cds.

Is there any software out there that can help me read these old cds that I burned files on?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Simple solution to that - Read your CD in a DVD-ROM (reader) and it will read it. Also you can try using ISOBUSTER.
