SYMPTOMS
A CD that contains audio, video, and data-formatted media will launch the CD player when Autorun.inf is run. The CD Player will operate correctly but an attempt to browse the CD-ROM drive using Windows NT Explorer or My Computer, will result in the following error:

Drive letter X:\ is not accessible. The parameter is incorrect. Retry or

Cancel.

-or-

Drive letter X:\ is not accessible. The file or directory is corrupt and

non-readable. Retry or Cancel.

NOTE: X is the drive letter of the CD ROM drive.



CAUSE
The Windows NT CD file system does not support the functionality of dual formats on CD-ROMs.



WORKAROUND
Windows 95 does support this function and using this operating system will allow its usage.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0 We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
