This is weird
I have a Matsui RW/CDR drive and a Liteon DVD ROM drive.
One day the Matsui stopped working..I uninstalled the drivers but then could find nothing to replace it.
However, device manager still recognises both the Matsui and Liteon but says the Liteon is disabled and will not re-enable it.
The Matsui now has started working but the Liteon has stopped and I cant find or update the driver !!!!!!
Type of drive:
dvd (dvd reader and cd-rom combo)


Location:
internal


What recording software are you using?:
Nero/version

The only XP drivers that exist are the one's Microsoft packaged with the os. You won't find any drivers from other sources. I suggest you do some reading.
