Hello, I have a samsung cd-rom drive, when I insert a cd-
rw or cd-r disc and double click on the cd drive in my
computer" the hourglass comes up but than nothing
happens, if I click on "explore" it opens a desktop
window that lists (my computer,c drive,d drive etc), if I
click on "autoplay" and than click on "open folder to
show files" nothing happens, if I click on "auto play"
and than "view a slideshow of the images" it will read
the cd and show the images on the disc. Pre-recorded cd's
work fine. Any ideas?? Thanks
