I hope somebody might know the answer to this one. My burner is a Sony CRX140E rev 1.0n. Since upgrading to XP I am unable to format 700mb CDRWs using either DirectCD or INCD; though both will happily format 650mb discs and access 700mb ones previously formatted under Win '98. It's not critical but does bug me a lot.

In XP, InCD wouldn't format those mini CD-RWs(200Mb) too,had to be done in Win98.But reads and write those previously formated disks.This is on a Yamaha CRW8424E.

Hi, I do have the same drive, crx140e, but no XP so I don't know if it will help, but I wanted to mention here that there have been 2 firmware upgrade since the 1.0n, the latest being 1.0s. It might be worth to upgrade to it. You can find it at the The Firmware Page
Just remember that you will be doing it on your own risk...
I have a TEAC 516EB and have the same problem with CDRW's that were previously used by other burners----I cannot format the cdrw's in Wxp. I do not have any new cdrw's yet, but will be trying them to see if that makes a difference. Used DirectCD (latest edition).
Where will you be in 100 years? If you don't know, I can tell you. (and its not the grave. write me)
