Can you burn CDs with that writer in applications like Nero ?
Also ensure, you have ASPI installed on your system.
If the problem comes back and forth, check the connectors about loose cables or simply unplug the CD-RW, start your computer, shut it down and replug it again.
Usually, these drives should work even without drivers (and Windows XP also has a lot of drivers included already). Then you still can try to apply the drivers manually. |

Here's the thing:
I have a CD Burner (it's old, but meh), and if I go in "My Computer", I see the drives, there's E: (CD-Rom Drive, and it aknowledges it as a CD-Rom Drive), then there's D: (which is supposed to be my CD Burner, it even says CD-RW drive). But the thing is that when I go in properties, it says it's a CD-ROM drive, when it cleary is a Cd Burner.
So, what the heck do I do? DO I try and find the drivers again?
(Again, I'm using WinXP SP2)
Edit: When I need it, too.
Edit 2: Or sometimes, It'll say that there are no CD in the drive, when there are. I'm beginning to wonder if it's not the CDs that are at fault. |
