lol... hahah

 

I haven't had a CD explode EVER... Guess I'm just lucky..

[Nyerguds 100]

wtf. You can't lower the speed of a CD player...

 

My old 10-year old C&C CD's still work fine. Not that I ever use the originals to actually play though... i'd be crazy to do that. I never play with my original CD's... don't wanna risk damaging em. Got backup copies of all my game CD's.

(And in Belgium it's legal to have one copy of every CD you bought 8))

Not realy xploding more like shatering and i do paly C&C Ra all the time its just that my :10: disk one shattered cause my cd driver spins way to fast its overclocked and i think its harder to find C&C gold then RA

[Cygnus X-1 12]

yeah. still, I've never heard of that before. I have heard of a cracked disk, but never shattered.

 

Unless it was Britney Spears :lol: :wink:

 

I guess Im lucky to have a crappy comp, I can garuntee the disk drive wont be too fast for anything.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

but at least you have a fast computer

 

I have 712 MB RAM, but my processor (Cleron 2 Ghz I think on the speed) of all things :x

There was some study done that showed that the average CD Drive spins faster than a CD can withstand.

[Luk3us 63]

I gues I'm just lucky. I've never had a Cd go boom on me ever!.

 

Though I have had a mate at tech once.. His was like a mini bomb. Everyone in class like freaked out..

 

Tis was funyn. Ahh.. zee old days.

cause the douche-bags that made the cdDrive think faster is better .. although i might agree with them my game collection is realy hurting this also happend with my first copy of RA2 allies so i gave my firend the solviet disk and bought another copy of the game ... bahhh i guess :10: hates me

[Cygnus X-1 12]

whats with the small type

 

people are stupid. and many of them know it. so why the helldo they do it ?!

[Luk3us 63]

Faster CD reading means FASTER CD READING...

 

Faster is better.

[Acerz492 1]

Haha...that's why you always make copys of your CDs..

not if its breaking your CDs :roll:

[Acerz492 1]

Faster 'tis always gunna be better...

[Luk3us 63]

I've never had a CD break on me before...

 

I don't think they'd make CD readers or whatever faster than a CD can handle... If you keep your gear in good condition I don't think you'd have a problem.

 

I haven't.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

neither have I, but some people here seem to have bad luck

 

or just bad Cds :wink:

[Luk3us 63]

Meh.. Thats just bad luck...

 

And throwing CDs around and stuff doesn't help. My mate always chucks his CD's around..

 

Though he's never had any CD problems ever. Funny that.

you could say that again .. that is the whole bad luck thing ... my games r in good condition unless they cracked while i moved to the new house :?

[Cygnus X-1 12]

tis why you use foam packaging and those pesky little white foam pellets in you boxes :wink:

[Luk3us 63]

You could do that. Or you could just stick them in a CD carryin case instead...
