| 140727 | 2003-05-02 04:56:00 | I installed XP on my laptop recently. It took a bit of fiddling as I am running a USB 2 PCMCIA card, with a burner and an ext HDD attached. It has run fine for a few weeks, but today, after unplugging my burner and then reattaching it, XP decided that it was a CD-r, not a CD-rw. I have tried unistalling the drivers, and unplugging and plugging in the burner. XP recognised it automatically as a burner at first, then changed its mind and detected it as a CD-r. Once it was all set up, it was showing it as a CD-r again. One of the other guys in my office is having the same problems, so it seems to be a common issue. Anyone got any suggestions/solutions? Thanks |

| 140729 | 2003-05-03 02:03:00 | Sorry I'll try that again. Xp thinks that my CD-RW is a plain CD-rom. If I try and reinstall the drivers, it registers my burner as just that, getting the type, make and model right, but then changes its mind, decides it is just a normal CD-rom, and installs it as that, Any ides? |
