    Hi PKampwerth,

    Lets try a few standard steps assocaited with trouble shooting optical drives.
    Please click on the CD/RW link in my post and scroll to Section 15, article 1; Section 20, article 3; Section 12, article 10 (Ignore the reference to Roxio).
    Those cover the drivers, controller and filters.
    If nonoe of the above helps, please list the name/model of the drive in question.
    You can gather this information from Device Manager.
    To access Device Manager, use any of the following methods:
    • Click Start, click Run, and then type devmgmt.msc.
    • Right-click My Computer, click Manage, and then click Device Manager.
    • Right-click My Computer, click Properties, click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
    Once there, click the "+" next to DVD\CD-ROM drives and list the name/model of the drive(s)


    Best Regards!




    God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
    the good fortune to run into the ones I do and the eyesight to tell the
    difference.
