hmm, that's a toughy. Perhaps try to update the bios. Uninstall, then reinstall might help.

what programs have you tried to use??
and have you went to the web and looked for updates for the utility?

VCDEasy, Nero (downloading the newest version now), and Easy CD Creater 5.0 Platinum.. Couldn't find any updates for the CD-RW just a firmware update but it's only to recognize more media...

Might a well give it a shot. the firm ware. I assume you are using NOT nero 6 cause it is still in its infancy.

It's not uncommon that a newer drive won't work with older software. CDRW drives change all the time. Some software has a drive database file you can download that enables it to work with newer drives.

Liteon drives usually come with a copy of Nero that works with them, but I would expect the latest Nero should work fine.

Have you had a chance to test it in another system like a W2K one?
Could it be a conflict with XP and your other software? Did you already have a burner in this system that was working before with that same software? Inquiring minds want to know

I have a 52x24X52X liteon and it has never had a problem working with any software yet, but it is in a W2Kpro System. So is the 48x??x48X liteon.

If you figure this one out, post an answer please, as I just put one in the shopping cart at newegg myself

Not that I need the upgrade from 48x to 52x, but I was gonna give my 48x to a friend that doesn't have any burner at all, but I don't wanna scr3w myself doing it.
And I don't upgrade my software very often, so if it needs all new software updates to work I am down the tubes with it.

You can always load an ASPI driver.

Hey Exec, a little more info on that? Because VCDEasy, now that I think about it, said something about needing that?? eGo
