Default Recording tab not visible for DVD-RW drives

Hi,
The system has (2) x DVD-RW drives. Both of these drives do not have the
recording tab visible under properties. (Vista Ultimate).
Is there a registry fix or workaround for this?

Thanks

Default Recording tab not visible for DVD-RW drives

Hi,

The drive may require a firmware update in order to register correctly.
Check with the drive manufacturer for the availability of one. If the drive
was preinstalled by a system manufacturer, check with them for possible
resolution.

Hi,

Try uninstalling them and removing the upper and lowerfilter entries per
this article:

Then reboot and reinstall the drives.

Default Recording tab not visible for DVD-RW drives

Hi,

Are you able to record with it?
Have you installed any 3rd party burning software?

I ask that latter question as I do have one Vista system where there is no
recording tab on the DVDRW unit that burns perfectly fine using a third
party program.

Default Recording tab not visible for DVD-RW drives

Some details:
When the SATA & RAID drivers are installed, the native Windows DVD burning
capability is disabled. ie: The recording tab found under the DVD drive
properties disappears. When the SATA & RAID drivers are uninstalled the
recording tab for the DVD-RW drives will reappear.
Configuration (2) x IDE DVD-RW drives & (1) x SATA hard drive in IDE mode.
