New DVD drive, won't read any disc. Help!

mmyers323 · 07-26-2008, 02:03 AM

Weird situation:

I installed a new Pioneer DVDR 115D drive and it read discs fine. But as I was burning a folder onto a blank disc (using Nero's InCD) it just froze. I had to do a forced reboot. Now the drive won't read a damn thing -it just says to insert a disc in drive D when there is a disc in.

I have tried uninstalling the driver and after restart windows recognises the type of drive just fine. Also tried system restore - still the same, just says to insert a disc. ***?

Does anyone have any ideas?

Mike
