A DUAL G4? How quaint-so many people call it a DUEL I thought that was it's
name;)

You didn't say what system you are using or if you are copying data or audio
cd's, but I have had problems copying that I traced to MP3 files and I heard
later that there can be problems copying them because of the long file names
or something. I use OS 9.x-can't help you with X.
