SUMMARY
=======
 
Because of physical read limitations, some CD-ROM drives may not be able
to access some files and folders on the Music Central compact disc. This
article lists the location of these files and folders and discusses a
method to test your CD-ROM drive.
 
The following is a list of the final three folders on the Music Central
compact disc. These folders are the outermost tracks on the disc.
 
   d:\mmcat\wavs                         589-590 MB
   d:\mmcat\dibs                         586-589 MB
   d:\mmcat                              585-586 MB
