    Hi, I just installed an OEM 106D on windows XP.
    The device manager refers to the drive as "AXV CD/DVD-ROM SCSI CdRom Device"

    Nero 5 and 6 do not see the device at all - apparently.

    And Insant Copy sees the "AXV CD/DVD-ROM" drive as a source drive, and not a destination drive.

    Installed correctly, shouldn't windows be refering to this drive by its proper name, "Pioneer DVD 106D" or something close?

    Are there drivers that need to be installed? You'd think this OEM would come with SOMETHING. It doesn't.

    Please help. I can't do jack w/ this drive.

    I have this AXV CD/DVD-ROM SCSI Cdrom device AND Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-106D in my WindowsXP and OEM pioneer...
    I think the AXV is a virtual drive (From Alchohol 120% or deamon tools)
    Could this be your case?

    Oh - you are correct. That must be the Alcohol virtual drive. The Pioneer is not being recognized at all. Better check hardware. :)

    Thanks!

    This is right, it is just the virtual drive that Alcohol creates, you can even disable from the settings to be sure.

    It is some connection problem, you probably have not set the drive's jumpers correct. You don't need any drivers for WinXP, it installs itself without needing any CD or drivers. Check the connection cables (have you put it on power?) and the jumpers.

    Thanks a lot. I had the jumper set wrong on the back of the drive. No problem.

    Now to figure out how to turn IFO's into finished DVD's...
