You need to check you hardware carefully,
especially the IDE cable and jumper settings.
You should not need any special drivers. This
is an ATAPI compliant IDE optical drive and the
driver for that is part of the operating system.
It was working to install Vista... and worked perfectly up till the time of
installation so I dont see how a cable or setting was set wrong... didnt even
open the case.
Same problem here. So those of us that have Sony dvd drives should just buy
new ones? I don't think so. If anybody esle has a solution please let me
know.
