Hi, I have a Lite-On LTR 52327S. I have just installed a new hard drive with XP pro OS and now the CD-RW wont format RW CDs as rewritable; once the format is complete the device icon shows as CD-ROM although the discs then act as CD-Rs which can be completely erased. If I uninstall InCD I get no format options but the discs are recognised as RW, with InCD the device just shows as CD-ROM. I’ve installed Lite-On’s firmware without success. I’m assuming that I’m missing some driver. Can any one help? Thanks
When you put a CDRW into your drive and then look at it in My Computer it doesn't indicate that it is a CDRW but just a CDR? Or is this what which ever burning program refers to it as?
Thanks for your interest. I have, however, fixed the problem. I was missing the aspi. With that installed the CD-RW works fine.
Hey, this is an old post, but I am having troubles with re-using a CD-RW disc -- can't get it erased in order to use it again. I noticed that you mentioned ASPI -- what's ASPI. Nero tells me that ASPI is not installed -- would that have anything to do with my problem. -- Ron in Round Rock
To see what ASPI means look here http://www.afterdawn.com/glossary/terms/aspi.cfm and here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASPI
OK, I see that, and know just a little about SCSI, and sorry, but I can't tell if this is something I need in my system -- ilel for proper operation of my LITE-ON disc recorders -- are these SCSI devices. -- Ron in Round Rock
