ROBLEM

If the DVD has a capacity greater than 4 GB, the size is not read correctly by Windows
95.

Cause

This is a limitation of Windows 95 drivers that was corrected in Windows 95 OSR2.

Solution

Microsoft has corrected the problem with Windows 95 OSR2 and within Windows 98.
Creative is currently working on device drivers that will correct the situation; check our
website for the availability of the drivers. DVDs still function properly with the PC-DVD
drive.
