Hi!  I have an optical disk which fails to initialize.  It appears that
it could stand some cleaning.  Is there a recommended procedure for
doing this, or can it be cleaned the way you would a compact disk?
I'd appreciate any reply by e-mail, as I am not a regular reader of
this newsgroup.  I do promise to summarize what I get, though.
Thanks!
