It sounds like the sessions on the cd are *not* linked i.e. multi-volume. I'm afraid there's no going back and linking them. You'll only see the last session written to unless....you use either Nero or Easy Cd Creator Deluxe's Session Selector utility. The latter is the best because it works in NT based os as well as 9x (unlike Nero).

or are you using packet writing - Roxio's Direct CD ?? I've always ran into problems pretty quickly that way and don't use it anymore (even if they have improved it).

try using nero - when selecting properties of your cd, nero should add a tab that lets you choose which session you want to view. i had these prob's with audio cd's i compiled myself in more than three times, only two sessions showed up at once.

they won't show up all at once - that's the prob. but with nero, you can chooso what session you want to view - unlike other proggies
