| | Hi, Sorry this is an obvious question, but are you inserting a DVD into a CDROM drive? Or DVD into DVD drive? Regards, Golden |

| | it says DVD-RAM drive on 'my computer' and the front of the actual drive says 'dvd-RW' I believe it is a SONY DVD RW AW-G170A I've only got one drive so hopefully it's the right sort of one? |

| | Hello BrutalLogiC, welcome to Seven Forums! Just as a test, what happens if you insert the disk into the CD/DVD drive while in XP, does it do anything? |

| | This dvd was burnt by you from an iso? Or its a pre-manufactured, labelled one? Also check if theres a firmware update for that drive. |
