WTF are you talking about? I've never had this problem

BTW, this problem is not a WinXP problem since XP has zero native
ability ot burn images. You need to address the maker of whatever
software you used to burn the issue to resolve your problem.

I have no knowledge of your problem, but that may be a *hidden file*.

To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files and
Folders under Start>Control Panel>Folder Options>View.

Hi,

Go to the Control Panel/Folder Options, and on the View tab, set the options
so you can see hidden and system files. Specifically:

Enable (check) "Display the contents of system folders"
Enable (check) "Show hidden files and folders"
Disable (uncheck): "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)"

I also recommend that you disable (uncheck) "hide extensions for known file
types". You might also check your Nero settings if that is the program you
used, it may be using a different temp location.

Then send your question to Ahead Nero Software. The problem is NOT
related to XP.
