DVD-ROM and CD-RW drives do not read CD-RW disks
I have had this computer for nearly 4 years, and have not
experienced this problem until recently. I have not installed any new programs that could have created this problem - it just stopped working one day. Last I checked, my computer is virus and spyware free. I have a Sony Vaio PCV-RX380DS, with Pioneer DVD-ROM DVD- 116R and Sony CD-RW CRX160E drives. When I insert a CD- RW, whether it is new, empty or used, the computer prompts me to insert a disk into the drive, as it cannot read that current disk. When I try to burn onto a CD-RW using Adaptec DirectCD, it fails to burn because it does not recognize the disk. When i insert the same disk into my other computer (WinXP), I experience no problems. I have tried to look for any updates with Sony or the drive makers but have come up empty handed. I have no problem with CD-R's, but i prefer to use CD-RW for large file transfers between computers. Any help is appreciated. Bianca |
