My sister-in-law has an HP Pavillion 7875. I recently had to replace
her CDRW. I installed an LG DVD/CDRW. I copied some files to a blank CD
to test the drive and everything worked well. Three weeks later she
starts having trouble with the drive. It would copy the files to the
drive but didn't seem to verify the copy. I went to check the drive and
the files did copy but Windows XP was still giving an error that it
couldn't finish the operation. After rebooting the computer a couple of
times windows refused to copy any files to the DRW folder. It will copy
to a floppy or another folder on the hard drive but not to the CDRW
folder. I believe its a virus but I could not verify with her McAfee
which was just updated. Any ideas?
 
Have you checked the LG site to make sure that you've got the latest version
of the firmware and any drivers that may be required.

Have you uninstalled the device (using Device Manager - go to Start...Run
and type in DEVMGMT.MSC and press Enter) by right clicking on it and
selecting uninstall? Then reboot the system in order to let Windows redetect
the drive?
