| | DVD archiving between systems I used a DVD burner to save and archive data files from my Windows Me desktop. However, I am unable to retrieve and read files on two of the DVDs with my Windows Vista Home Premium laptop (Dell Inspiron). How come? |

| | Re: DVD archiving between systems Hi, Curtis Can you perform those tests, please: 1) Can you read the files in the same Windows ME computer that generated the DVDs? 2) Can you read the files in another computer (not the Windows ME that generated it, nor the Vista you are having trouble with)?

| | Re: DVD archiving between systems 1) Yes, I have no problem reading the files on the DVD with the external DVD burner that I have connected to the Windows Me desktop. 2) I tried to read the same DVD with my Windows XP Professional computer at work but the drive on the computer apparently can read only CDs, not DVDs.
