At Southglenn, our CDs available for purchase by Patrons, had not been formatted for the operating system Windows 7. Patrons didn't have the time to waste on waiting for the CDs to format. Each format takes about 20 minutes. To format a CD:
Click on My Computer
Click on the Disk (D drive)
The Computer will ask if you want to use it like a USB or a DVD. Pick USB (So that changes can be made and saved to the CD)
The Computer will promt you to format the disk and that it may take several minutes
Click continue with format
Once the format is complete, the disc will be ready for the patron to use and there shouldn't be a problem. Note, the operating systems for Staff computers and Patron computers are different and therefore the CDs will not work on Staff computers. The formating must be done on a computer running Windows 7.
