When I put a blank dvd or cd into my NEC AD-5170A writer it appears that the disc is "read", then is immediately "read" a second time when my PC either (usually) reboots or displays a blue 'stopped to protect your computer' screen. Other discs are no problem.
I have a motley collection of dvd drivers both signed and unsigned. Currently Windows XP Home thinks an unsigned one from my (Pinnacle) video editing software is best! Why is there not a standard driver?
I have removed the writer from Device Manager and rebooted also tried New Hardware Wizard but still the same driver.
As this is a new writer I do not really want to buy yet another new one. I presume it is a driver problem - so how do I change drivers? It is not obvious to me!!
