    You are referring to 99min CD-Rs? Does your drive support them?

    Which recorders support the 99 minute CDR format?

    Well, I dont know where you live guys, but here in Spain we haver regular 650 Mb cds, 700 mb, and brand new 800 and 900 Mb with 90 and 100 min. each. The only problem is that I dont find software to burn them so they are still useless.

    The brand of the cds is VERTIGO (xeo technologies from switzerland)

    bkyslows,

    You'll have to look at manufacturer's pages. I think that the drive has to be quite recent model in order to support extra large CD-Rs.

    I dont think it´s a problem from my drive, because even nero or Easy cd (lastest versions) doesnt recognize it. In case the problem were in the drive, these programs would tell me that my drive would not be compatible with the cd of 100 min.

    One of the main manufacturers of these disks is XEO.

    For burning the ***HIGHLY*** unreliable & problematic 90 & 100 min CDs simply use NERO. Configure the over burning options accordingly.

    The program will tell you that the inserted media only has a capacity of about 150Mb but if your burner is capable of burning 99 minutes... it will :) Only a few burners support these crappy CDs (the A-Open 3248, up to 99 min, for example...). They are supported by even less CD/DVD readers... Do NOT use these CDs for ANY important data back-up!!! Trust a veteran-backup-fusk-up :-] The design of these CDs is a complete violation of about every CD-R standard.

    is there a risk of damaging your writer if it does not support the 99 min CD ?

    I don't think that there is any risk of drive damage.
