ok i have recently burned a cd with pictures of my new
baby i used the xp cd wizard and they burned fine and
then i checked them on my computer and they worked but
after passing them out to family and friends they were
telling me that the cds were not working and that they
were freezing there systems they were on windows 95-xp so
it cant be the os and its not the media becuase they work
great on my computer and my dads who has win xp as well

any ideas would be greatly appreciated
 
You cannot read a photo CD made on XP on Window 95 (but you can read it on a
Mac).
If you want to read it on 95 or 98 you have to add something to it.
Go to this site and download the free slide show:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp
Download the file slideshow.exe in one of your folder.
Open the folder, double click on the file to install it.
When you copy photos to CDs the wizard will ask you if you want to add this
feature. You answer yes and three files will be added to the CD to make this
work.

If you want to add this feature to an already made CD, copy one more photo
file to the CD. Follow the same copying procedure, just insert your photo CD
instead of a blank CD. You will be asked if you want to add this feature
during the copying process.
