I use this drive on two different Dell Laptop computers, and I use the software bundled with the drive. On my newer Laptop with Vista, I don't have any issues with functionality. On the older laptop, I run into some issues.
On my Dell Inspiron 6400 Windows XP Laptop, the drive has been unable to recognize any HD DVDs at all. It will recognize non-HD DVDs with no trouble. Normally I would just dismiss this as an "older laptop incompatibility" issue, but I was able to process HD DVDs on this very computer until about 2 weeks ago. At that time, I had to re-install Windows XP and all software. Now, the drive will not recognize HD-DVDs anymore. It simply says Windows cannot read from this disc. It might be corrupted, or using a format that is incompatible with Windows. however, it will recognize non-HD DVDs.
Do you have any information on why this might have happened?
