cd reading

Hi

I have just created a cd based demo web with FP2000 under XP pro. The disc
plays back fine on the XP machine, but when tried on a WIN 98 machine it
doesnt play, and I get " G:\ is not accessible Device not ready" when I
try to read it in Win Explorer. The disc is a 48x speed 700mb CD-R. Is it
too fast for the older machine???

Any ideas?
Thanks Hugh
