Armada E5000 - CD-RW Problem
Armada E5000 - CD-RW Problem - OS - WIN98 SE
I have just replaced my "COMPAQ DVD-ROM - DRN8080B" with a "TOSHIBA DVD-ROM - SD-R2102" The system recognises the new drive but non of my burning software sees the drive as a writer. I assume I need a driver for the CD-RW but when I visit the Toshiba site they say the drive doesn't need one. Any assistance would be appreciated.

You don't need a driver. You need an update for your burning software to a
version that supports the drive. Check out their websites. Tom "John Makepeace" wrote in message ...

Uh, am I missing something here? A DVD-ROM is not a burner.
