I purchased an HP notebook on 31 May 2008.
OS is Vista Premium.
Today, I tried using DVD drive for first time.
Drive will not record CD-RW, but is supposed to be able to read them.
Created a CD-R and a CD-RW on another system.
No problem reading the CD-R in the DVD drive.
Using DVD-R media, was able to write on the DVD via Windows.
When I try to read the CD-RW, Roxio pops up and asks to install some Easy
Write critter.
After doing so, when I try to see the files on the drive, all I see is the
UUReader stuff, not the actual files.
This is essentially the same issue I saw back with Win 98 and Easy Creator
5.
How do I see the files on the CD-RW?
The software is the pre-installed Roxio Creator.
Do not know the version.
I'm creating Recovery DVDs now so I do not want to check the version until
after the recovery DVDs have been created.
I thought that Vista had built-in software for reading UDF???
