| xp wont recognize SOHR-5238S as cd-rw Hello, I just bought a Lite-on SOHR-5238S from circuit city the other day to replace my old sony cd burner that crapped out. I installed just like I was supposed to and windows will only recognize it as a normal cd-rom drive. Whats can I do to fix this? I've already tried the registry thing on the microsoft website, doesnt work. |

| Re: xp wont recognize SOHR-5238S as cd-rw Does Nero recognise it as a CD writer?

| Re: xp wont recognize SOHR-5238S as cd-rw Is your MB an nVidia or VIA based board? If so, are you using their IDE drivers? If so, uninstall them, get rid of them and use the Standard Microsoft ATA/IDE drivers. See if that makes a difference.

| Re: xp wont recognize SOHR-5238S as cd-rw Sorry, I had the same problem with my son's CD-RW and that was the fix. Good luck.
