I can play DVD's & burn stuff on there, but when I put another disc in there, like a CD-R with files it takes forever to read it & when it does, it reads it as an empty disc & you see nothing in there. Though I can still see what's in that disc when I pop it in another computer. I can still burn files, but when it's done, I eject it & put it back in so it can read it, yet it I still get the same crap.
It's a HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4481B.

Phantom_Savage....So lets get this straight ....it will play dvds and burn dvds , but it wont read or write a cd ........is that correct ? Are you able to play a music cd in it ?
What operating system are you using ?
Is this dvd drive in a Dell by any chance ?

I can't burn DVD's since it's not a DVD burner, I can burn CD's.
Here's another person who has the same problem, hopefully it'll give more detail since I'm not good at explaining. (http://www.winguides.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=genhardware&Number=121520&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&part=)
Also I'm using a Compaq.

No it's not referring to the same, I'm having a CD-RW/DVD-ROM problem on this computer, & I'm having video software problems on the other.

Everything is from this year, so I'd say about around 3 months. I'm on Windows XP.
