SUMMARY
=======
 
Because of physical read limitations, some CD-ROM drives may not be able
to access some files and folders on the Cinemania compact disc. This
article lists the location of some of those 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 Cinemania compact
disc. These folders are the outermost tracks on the disc.
 
   d:\mmcat\wavs                         605-606 MB
   d:\mmcat\dibs                         602-605 MB
   d:\mmcat                              601-602 MB
 
To test for specific drive-capacity limitations, try to access
the files listed below. These files are located in the outermost megabytes
of the Cinemania disc:
 
   d:\data\tours\wexy.c7t                601 MB
   d:\data\setup\ir32_32.dll             581 MB
   d:\ctrl5\t017325a.wav                 560 MB
 
The Cinemania compact disc contains 606 MB of data. The final file on the
disc is d:\mmcat\wavs\wof.wav.
