Why can't I read 90min/800Mb CDs?

Hi!
I got a 90 min cd, and I cannot play it, or copy its content to the hard drive, although I tried to read it with a writer and a simple CD-ROM too. Do I have to change any Windows settings? Please help. The CD is burned perfectly, it can be read by CD-Roms in other computers.

Thanks

Bal

Your drive might not be able to read multi-session cd-r's!!!! If its an old writer it probably wont be able to!!

i dont know if thats the problem, but its the only idea i can think of!!!

are you sure it burnt correctly?
souds to me as if your using some random,... possessed-by-devillish-thing media!!!
... or you've just simply got a raaaandom system.
chances are theyres a workaround but it doesnt seem apparent to me!

I agree..it could be just not supported by your Drive..
What kind of drive is it?!
