PeteC, I hadn't actually tried a totally fresh installation of 7.0.4 (I'd assumed it would see another version and ask me to remove it) - it's...
I currently have Steganos Security Suite 7.0.4 on my PC (Win2k) and I'm trying to update it (to 7.0.7). The update routine requires the old...
Paul, I've already tried another DVD drive - a Freecom DVD/CD-RW - via Firewire and it works fine. Also, it's not a failure to play DVD movies...
Updated drive firmware (1.01 to 1.04, so probably nothing significant, but should fix any possible corruption). The drive seems to try harder at...
Thanks for all the suggestions: a) I've tried uninstalling the CD/DVD drivers in Device Manager, rebooting and letting XP redetect and...
I've a ten month old Sony Z1RMP laptop - works great but, today, I've found it won't read DVDs. I don't use DVDs often in it and I reckon it must...
Thanks for the link, but no joy with it. It looks like it's a hardware problem. I've plugged a stand-alone DVD/CD-RW drive into it via Firewire...

This just hasn't been my day. Booting up my PC at work and Explorer.exe is generating a DrWatson report; result - blank screen! Done an NT4...
No blackouts recently. The powerstrip is OK because that also provides power to the speakers and monitor (whose lights are still on). I'll try...
My wife has phoned to say our home desktop PC has died. The monitor and speaker power lights are on (so AC is OK); all lights on the main box are...
Win2000/SP4 and B's Recorder Gold CD writing software (came with my Sony CD-RW drive). CD-R originally worked under Roxio EasyCD5 then, after a...

Matt, Putting it down to its slowest speed in ECDC doesn't help (I managed one disk at 8x but that seems to be a one-off). Packet writing to...
