DVD Drives do not read media
I have two dvd drives installed in windows home premium, on a asus p5n-e sli
motherbaord. They utilize IDE. Neither one will read any type of cds, and only my sony dru-710 will read movie dvds, nothing else. Every time i put in a dvd or cd, the drive spins, and detects nothing. Clicking on the drive folder in my computer does nothing, except prompt me to put in a disk. When I dual boot to Windows XP Professional , both drives work perfectly and will read any type of compatible media. The sony will burn dvds and cds in xp, however it will not burn anything in Vista. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall drivers, i have updated to the newest firm ware for the sony drive, and nothing seems to work. I have even tried to use a ide to sata card with the sony, and still nothing. I believe both drives are suossedly compatible with vista. Please Help!@! Thanks, Will |

Thanks, Will Same thing here with Ultimate and a Nec 4550... any idea?? I took a look to other similar problems related with filters, and aspi drivers. Not luck. The system is brand new installed without any software in it (mostly because it does not read dvds....) Thanks for the help |
