For some reason this computer I'm currently using (ASUS laptop) doesn't appear to be formatting the discs. That leads me to ask this question...so if I use third party software to burn the disc, does the third party software then format the disc? Or is it something performed by a Windows software? I tried this laptop's burner (ASUS) as well as an external burner (LG Lightscribe). Neither one worked. I even moved the folder to a second computer (Dell Desktop), but even that one left corrupt files. Lastly I put the individual files on a flash drive, loaded them to my Toshiba laptop, and created a folder for them while on that oldest computer. That worked without any problem. So I'm left wondering if this current ASUS laptop has a glitch creating folders? I was asked to do a project, and the end result was a 34MB file. I wanted to burn the original file to a disc plus I used Caesium (Windows only program) to compress the file size--and I added that file to the disc as well. Sure I could have used Dropbox, but this way they have a hard copy of the files. And I used my Lightscribe burner to add text to the top of the disc making it look nice.</blockquote>
