When I write to the 7200e in W95, at the end of the session
it asks if I want to close the disk permanently and make it
readable as a CDROM. If I want to be able to write to it
again, it is left with a file system (vfat?) that can be
reopened for writing but is only readable on the cd writer.
Maybe your process left it open to further writing.
