    I am trying to move files from a backup DVD and CD (that was created using Windows XP and Nero) to my new PC running Windows 7 with Roxio.  When I open the discs with explorer, windows tells me that the files are empty (and I know the data is there).  I think the problem has something to do with the UDF format used to close the discs.  The old PC is gone, so I can't use easy transfer.  Is there asafe UDF reader out there that works with Windows 7 64bit?

    Thanks for any help you can provide..........Joe

    I would like to clairfy how the files were backed-up to the DVD, what program was used? What exact error message is received when trying to open the dvd?
