I do not know if this is the right place to ask this question so I
apologize if I am wrong. Here is my problem. I have several videos on
a couple dvd-r disks that I burnt there a while ago and now I am
wanting to put them on my hard drive. I am unable to get the files
from the dvd-r. The drive keeps spinning and it does not put the file
on my hard drive. It puts some of the files but not the others. So I
cleaned the drive and then I cleaned the disk, thinking there must be
some problem with it. However this did not work. Is there any way to
get my video files off this disk?? I am worried since I backed up many
files on dvd-r disks in the past. Is it possible this could happen to
most of my archives???

Thanks

There was a problem a few years back with corrosion appearing on discs
that were a couple of years old. Had a few here. It appeared as small
dark spots.

CDC Check - will work to restore what it can (it could run all night
and all of the day on a bad disc). Sometimes a different brand reader
in my experience picks up discs another might not. Presuming old
firmware and old media issues.

Thanks I will check that out since I have already tried 3 different
readers on 3 PC's in my house.
