Microsoft Corrects CD Burning Flaw in XP

Microsoft on Thursday posted a patch to correct problems that can occur when burning CDs under Windows XP. When copying files or folders to a recordable compact disc, the CD can become unreadable and individual files are sometimes lost. Occasionally, the disc will work fine under XP, but not older versions of Windows or external CD players.

Microsoft recommends Windows XP users install the patch and is expected to post it on Windows Update next week. The patch is currently available at Microsoft's Download Center. More information on the flaw and possibly symptoms may be found at support.microsoft.com.
