Some one told me,at this mail list(sorry, I don't remember who!) that could be due to a hardware problem with the diode of the laser reader... but then,why it works correctly with other data CD's and music cd's? >your computer. 2nd, is it by any chance a Packard Bell Computer? No.It's a clone with many different components,some cheap and some expensive. > If I can tell you anything, I'll let you know. >Isaac thanks Isaac, QUESTION: it's ok to install Windows in a hard drive with FAT16?.My old harddisk is 270 megs big and works with FAT16.My new 6.4GB hard drive works at FAT32.Can I have troble with this?(Win was installed in the old one) Do they have to work all at the same FAT? regards, Luis
