Properties of Cds and DVDs

Is there any file manager/explorer/plug in
which can make the os winme/winXP to
read the Cds and Dvds disks cappacity
correctly?
4.7GB disk is read as 648mb and on xp is
no space.(fully used) whereas the disk is
fully blank.
These disks are there now for a long time
but there is no improvement to this end.

Is Vista reading correctly?

smh
Thank.

(Good to see you again.)

AFAIK, there is no such file manager for winxp. I use Disc Info of
DiscSpeed (Speed Disc).

(There has been a wholesale changes made in cdspeed2000 and Nero sites.
No link for DiscSpeed or SpeedDisc download.)
DiscSpeed 5.0.1.250

In Vista you get AutoRun menu when you insert a blank disc. You get the
capacity by right-click the drive and then choose Properties.
