Hi guys and gals, my first post here (make me feel welcome )

the problem i have is driving me insane, cant seem to find a fix for it at all.

I have a dvd rom drive and a dvd rw drive, when i boot up the system with a cdrom or dvd rom in either drive i can use it fine, however if i insert another disc into the drive, the computer still seems to think the old disc is still in there (even the icon will not change) and will not work, the only way i can switch discs is by restarting the whole system.

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Have you tried pressing F5 when the drive is highlighted in order to update it? What CD-writing programs do you have installed? Finally, is autorun enabled?

sorry for delayed response.

the problem originally started after uninstalling some roxio software.
i have tried the f5 refresh thing, autrun is activated, i have also removed and readded the devices in device manager.

does anybody know the answer to this...????

Thanks

Have you gone to the Manufacturer's site and gotten the latest Firmware and Drivers?
