    Is Win 7 compatible with LightScribe?


    I customized an HP Pavilion dv4t series notebook with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and LightScribe disc labelling. I returned it since LightScribe was not included. I ordered a 2nd one with same configurations and again no Lightscribe Logo. Technical support from HP confirmed that LightScribe was not included on the 2nd one aswell. Is WIN7 compatible with Lightscribe drive?

    Thanks Guys, but I just found out that people with NVIDIA cards have issues with LightScribe:
    Nvidia Chipset users - LightScribe uslessIf you have an Nvidia chip set chances are that you can't use your light scribe.
