Recovering CD data after Vista

Recommended Posts

When I got Vista, I popped in a CD with a lot of important personal data on it. I tried to add a simple text file, and when I went to copy it to the disk, the Vista option came up for either 'make CD readily accessable', or 'standard' CD. Apparently it thought it was a blank disk. What I didn't realize was that Vista was preparing to clear the CD title, which it apparently did, and the only thing placed on the CD was a desktop shortcut icon. On inspection, the CD still has my original data(400 MB), but I can't get at it cause of the disk title change. Does anyone know of a work-around to get at my original data? BTW, that's just one reason why I went back to XP.

Best, Paul
