Hi

I tried to burn a hybrid CD which has some mac informations and Win 98
informations.

My Mac has OSX2.2.8 installed and I also have toast titanium.

I tried to burn a CD but it seems that the win 98 informations are
unreadable with a PC machine.

What can I do ?

Thanks

Marc Legare

Toast can burn a hybrid CD that can be read on both platforms.

I've never used Toast, but you can do it using OS 10.2.8 alone. It took me
a couple of tries to get it right, though. You have to make sure that no
folder or file names have characters that Windows will consider illegal.
What I eventually had to do was replace a space in the CD's name with an
underscore - now it reads fine on my Win98 machine.

I agree with this assessment. It could be the file extensions/file name
length are to blame. Also, you might make sure what files you are trying to
get your PC to read. Does your PC have the appropriate programs, etc.

I would also separate the mac and pc documents into separate folders as
well.


Kind Regards,
