You did say in the subject line that you have a Dell computer, but other
than that you have given no hardware information. I can't say for sure,
but I had a situation where I burned a CD on one computer and the CD drive
couldn't read its own writing. But another computer could read it!
Go figure! Try burning the CD on another computer.
