The maker of my DVD-R/RW drive is Hitachi, not a bad name generally..
I'll have to check if they offer a driver on their site.
I'll let you know if I find a solution.

Exactly! I do think we are experiencing the same problem. I've tried so many
things (including going into Windows registry) but all my attempts have
failed. I'm not really sure what else we can do. I was thinking about
writing Dell, the manufacturer of my computer, to see what they would
suggest. Maybe I just got a bad driver.

Pretty much the same story here, Andrew.
When I first set up the computer (abt. 3 months ago), I was able to make
backup copies of XP, which had been pre-installed on the machine, onto 4 or 5
CD-RW disks (can't remember how many for sure). That worked just fine.
Since then I've had no need to use the drive until a few nights ago. Now I'm
basically getting what you describe.
I really wonder if something ate the driver or damaged the OS (XP-Home). Not
sure how to check/restore either of them.
Cheers,

The software I was using was Nero and I was able to burn to DVD-Rs and CD-RWs
very well. But for some strange reason, one day when I went back to burn
something to a CD, my computer wouldn't recognize that my drive was capable
of even burning. I even went into Windows Media to see if I could burn an
audio CD and it told me to connect a burner before I could begin. I've
gotten to the point where I can't even copy things to a CD. This includes
files, pictures, or music. Is something wrong with my drive?
Thanks!

Don't have an answer, but have the exact same problem. Bought my computer
from Circuit City in September. Model A105-S4004. Reads cd and dvd, but will
not recognize that it is a recorder also. Have tried XP, Sonic, and Roxio
software. Maybe something wrong with hardware batch?

My DVD-RW is acting strange. It can play CDs and DVDs and rip music from
albums onto my computer. However, if I want to copy pictures onto a disk, or
make a DVD movie of my own, my computer does not recognize that I have a
burner. I've been able to copy onto disks before, so I'm not sure when this
error began. I've tried so many things like uninstalling it and even
changing the registry, however, my computer still does not recognize my drive
is capable of burning. Is there a problem with my drive (its a new computer,
I bought it in September) and should I use my warranty to get a new one? Or
is this a problem that can be fixed? Thanks for your help!
