Re: DVD problem after vista sp1 installation

Are you using any added software besides native Vista? Have you tried
installing codec's again. Are you talking about reading, writing or both.

RE: DVD problem after vista sp1 installation

you could try a firmware update for your drive...shot in the dark but the manufacturer may be aware of the problem and MAY have released a fw update for it.

RE: DVD problem after vista sp1 installation

I did a firmware update to the latest available and nothing changed. Well i
have uninstalled SP1 yesterday just to see if the problem would fix and it
didnt so it looks like that it isnt an SP1 problem after all it just happened
to occur at the same time probably my drive reached its limit or something.
Thanks for the help though
