copying files from DVD extremely slow under Vista RC1
My CD/DVD 4x +RW combo drive appears to have been correctly identified (Dell
Inspiron 8600) - the name of the device is the same under Vista and XP. However, copying files from a DVD is achingly slow in Vista RC1. It took over an hour to copy files that I was then able to copy in under 5 minutes under XP. I also noticed that the driver details are much more extensive under XP than under Vista. XP lists DVD related sys files while Vista has only a CD sys file listed. Attempts to update the driver under Vista, by pointing it at the system32 driver folder in my XP partition and then by letting Vista do an inernet search, came to nought however. It felt it was up to date. Microsoft will need to do some work on this before the next release.

copying files from DVD extremely slow under Vista RC1
What version of Vista are you using. I had this problem with Beta2, but
there was a huge improvement with later beta versions, including RC1. "Ado Neilson" wrote in message ...
