problems with CDRW

My dad has this cdrw, it had pictures on it from our vacation. My dad used to use the cd writing wizard, before i gave him nero. Now when we try to burn, or read the disc there are always errors. and the pictures have dissapeared. I brought the disc to my computer in the basement, and all the pictures are there but none of the mymoney files he had.

Those cdrw's are great for exchanging files with friends but suck as back ups . Mine always seem to get corrupted over time, better to burn the pictures to a cd as you'll want to keep your treasures . Which hopefuly you can still do . :)
