Need some info on differences and uses between CD and DVD types please ?

No, I said up in my first post Bulkpaq are the worst quality media money can buy, most of my orange Bulkpaq's have CRC errors now after around 5 months (all verified working at the time of burning) and now there's no way ever for me to get that data back My yellow Bulkpaq lasted around a year before the same problems. All of them were either written on a Pioneer or an LG and both drives cannot read them properly now.

Bulkpaq bad!

Ok

will read about the problems and take heed !

I am using XP, AVG, Zone, windows defender and norton . . .
Shorcuts on my desktop for online norton security/virus check, M$ site to repair IE and OE just in case, moneysavingexpert techie q&a's, etc. etc . . . Learnt through past blunders !

downloaded vista inspirat and office 2007 beta successfully and looks and works a treat - til now anyway !

Thanks though for the cd and dvd info - learn something every day - reading this forum anyway !!

Let me say one thing, You have Norton and AVG both are AV programs, You should only use the one as two will slow your PC down quite a bit, I personally would keep AVG, but if you have paid for Norton you may want to keep that then.

Hi Quincy !

I had sussed that one - because when they were both running, avg virtually stopped OE in its tracks.
What it is, is that I bought this PC with Norton loaded foc for. . . . cannot remember how long , when it runs out it runs out !
However I have successfully used AVG on all my previous PC's, so installed it and update it daily on this PC for when Norton runs out - this month

Thanks for the tip though

If Norton is on its way out and you need to re subscribe I would REMOVE NOW if your saying you have AVG aswell as you may aswell get shot of it, but thats what I would do.

Whatever YOU do only have one Antivirus running at a time.

Right.. I was just wondering. I thought you meant they were better. I have orange ones as well and they are full of errors although my 2 yellow ones are fine (18 months). to tell you the trust when I was talking about quality I was meaning picture quality for video.

Misunderstanding it's cool.
