Having installed a Sony DRU-800A DVD RW drive, Windows ( XP Pro ) , when
booting up says " New hardware found, trying to install ". The drive shows on
device manager as "Sony dvd-rw 800a" for approx 10 seconds and then changes
to CD-Rom, the install wizard says error unable to install device, file not
specified but
I am able to see the drive in "my computer",( as CD ROM) and I can read and
burn to disc's.
According to Sony this drive doesn't need a driver with XP.
I have stopped all startup programs and services but still occurs.
Uninstalled and installed loads of times but makes no difference..help
