    solution for this.

    Your post makes no sense without some context.

    "loading it onto a computer"? I don't know what you mean by that.

    If you've tried to copy articles from it, and it stops after X articles,
    then obviously there's a limit.

    If you mean, "insert in CD/DVD drive and play it", there should be no
    limits whatever. If you can't do that anymore, it's likely that a) the
    drive isn;'t working right anymore (test it with other disks); or b) the
    disk has been damaged in some way (eg scratches); or c) some update to
    your computer has messed with the drive-reading software; or d) you have
    some malware on your computer; or e) dunnpo what the problem is.

    There are utilities out there that can copy copy-protected CD/DVDs.
    There's no guarantee that any of them will work on this one. Search for
    "copy dvd utility". NB that most of these will produce a so-called ISO
    file, or will copy only to another disk, not to the hard drive on your computer. and to read that from your hard drive requires another
    utility. Also, the good ones will cost you some money.

    BTW, it's RUDE TO SHOUT!!!!!

    Best wishes,

    Bad habit using cap's all the time.. I apologize. But still watching for someone that has experienced this issue before with the MRR 75 year collection and find if there is an issue with writing it to the "C" drive multiple times.
