XP recognizes my DVD-ROM as CD-ROM
I upgraded my dell ME to XP home edition.
Now everything is fine except samsung SD-612D DVD-ROM is shown as an
ordinary CD-ROM drive on my computer.
I have samsung CD-RW with nero working fine on drive E: and samsung
DVD-ROM on drive F:.
On properties,it shows samsung SD612D and enabled and working fine but
it;s shown as an ordinary CD-ROM drive on my computer.
When I insert DVD disc and green light on DVD keeps blinking and
nothing pops up. When I try to explore,it says please insert a disc on
F:.
I installed CD-RW a year ago and DVD-ROM came with the system.They all
worked fine until I upgraded ME to XP.
WinDVD came with the system was not working with XP so I had to buy
WinDVD 5.5 for XP.
I did update firmware to samsung DVD-ROM.It appears to be version 5 is
latest issued on 2000.
I did have winDVD 5.5 for XP and installed it and uninstall it and
reinstall it.
I am totally lost. Is there anyway I can make XP recognizes my DVD-ROM
as DVD-ROM on my computer?
Please help. Thanks in advance.
