Hi all,
I recently acquired a copy of Windows Vista Home Premium and am having problems using my DVD-RW drive.
First, my drive model is a BTC DVDRW-IDE1108. I have had no problems with this drive under Windows XP, and I can use the drive to boot from CD, but it seems not to function in Vista. The drive is present in the device manager and Computer menu. When I insert a disc of any kind, the drive's LED lights up as if it's reading it, and it sounds as if it's spinning, but it will not actually read the disc and the computer will hang until I remove the disc.
I have tried updating my drive's firmware with no changes in behavior. I have also tried uninstalling the device through the device manager.
Any suggestions or similar problems would be helpful.
