I have a rather old CD-RW 4x2 and I recently received a 50spindle of Memorex 80 min CD-Rs. For some odd reason these cds WILL NOT read correctly. I am using the latest Adaptec version of Easy CD Creator. I understand that Memorex isnt that great of media. Is there any reason that 80min media wouldnt work in older CD-Rs or something?

What exactly is meant by don't read properly? After being burnt? It is true that some older burners won't support 80min CDRs.

Well for one thing, they spin up, and begin to read, like the autoplay comes up and everything although they do make an odd sound inside the CD-rom. I have tried these brand CDs on 2 workstations with the same results and I tried burning them on another type of media which was 74min and it burned correctly.

Yeah, it may be that your burner had difficulty burning them, and now there are some errors on the disc(s).
