I just checked the last disk I burned, and it shows 3.97 gigs which is the same as the size of the folder I was burning.

While the files all seem to be there according to the size, I'm concerned with these validation errors.  If a validation fails, doesn't that mean that some of the files that were burned are now corrupt or badly saved?  3.97 gigs is a considerable number to try and go through one by one to see if they all open or extract.

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
