Vista32 seems to have a bug in cdrom.sys. I have a NEC DVD_RW
ND-4571A and when I insert a media it recognizes correctly the size
(by example 308 MB on the CD-R), but cannot read from it and offers to
format the media (even non-formatable media like CD and DVD). The
drive is using the latest firmware and no malicious filter setting are
in the registry. In a parallel installation of Windows XP the drive is
working fine without any problem.
I saw, that many other people have similar problems with drives of
other vendors, so the seems to be clearly a bug in Vista. Microsoft's
KB does not help. The only way I found is to share a drive on another
computer running XP and connect this. But this is a quite poor
workaround.
Does anyone have an idea what to do?
Thanks for any advice.
