Matshita UJ 831Da Gon A Rye

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I have a Sony Vaio, Windows XP Pro SP3 and the ever loving Matshita UJ 831Da
CD-R DVD-RW combo drive. Problem started a while back but have been slow
trying to fix it. Useing the CD writing wizard that is OEM installed, I
believe to be writen by Roxio, (I Thought It was a Microsoft tool with XP) I
get a Warning "!" "Writing Error, the disk you have attempted to write may no
longer be usable", most of the time. Once in a while it will work fine. When
Trying to use Click to DVD (a sony oem installed product) to burn a dvd-r or
-rw, I get a Disk type not suported error. It seems to read everything I
throw at it as far as CD's but will not read DVD's. It started having
intermitant problems a year or so ago. I was in need of a Wipe and rebuild
anyway so did a OEM restore (coplete reformat and reinstall) and reinstalled
3rd party software. everything was cool for a while but after installing a HP
C4385 All in one printer the problems began again. Have tryed everything I
can think of and find so I finaly blamed HP for conflicting drivers. They
said no of course, but sure seemed to be alot of Roxio files in the HP folder
and I didn't have the easy creater version.

Ok cut to the chase; Once in a while it will burn CD-R's, more often not,
will not burn DVD-R, RW, Will not read DVD. Have uninstalled all HP stuff and
deleted the files and clean up the disk and registry from any HP stuff I
could easily ID. (I am ckicken to go to far) with only limited improvment in
burning CD-R adding to disks I had alread ben using and 2 out of 10 trying to
burn a new one. No Cahnge in the DVD side.
Is this a "Mit sh*t a" hardware issue or could it still be software or
system? From everything I have read I am leaning to hardware broken. Still
hopeing for software and not ready to appoligize to HP yet. (had way to many
HP conflicts in past. I only have this one out the divorce because my 10 year
old epson (my it RIP) died.)

Anyone??
Thank You!
