Why are you using Nero? There's native support for CD-RW and DVR-R/RW built into XP; you simply select a bunch of files, right click and Send To CD-ROM, select the CD-ROM drive and tell it to burn the files. You can use the Windows Media Player to burn audio and video CDs. No more need for a third-party software!

And there's no need to pre-format a CD and then use it packet-written this way, either!
