I also have a Liteon ihas424 98B DVD writer, that win7-64 will not recognize during install (but it reads the win7 install DVD..) Installed win7-32 and all is fine. Used PLDS smartpack utility to update the DVD firmware, to latest level. Ran twice, 2nd time no update. rebooted to win7-64 install dvd, win7-64 install still pops error right before unpacking files, CD/DVD driver missing... I gotta say huh? win7-32 has the driver, 64 does not?
I will try to find another win7-64 install dvd. And things were going so well...........
ASUS P67 Pro (B3 natch), bios default settings, 8G ram, samsung HD103sj, radeon hd5570 (not a gamer), corsair 650 power, Antec 300 case.
Bare bones so far. More HD coming, and a 2nd DVD. Tweak later, get running now.

SELF ANSWER - Turns out the win7-64 DVD was bad. downloaded another win7 - 64 iso file, burned DVD, installed, and all is well! Wow, I would not have called that one.
