Ok this is a strange problem. First off..
I am running Vista 32.
I am using a Sony DDU1615 DVD-Rom and a Sony AW-Q170A.
I recently built this computer and it has been problem free, until I tried to install my first DVD based game. The Autorun for the game gives me the install menu, but anytime I try to access the disk through the autorun menu I get the Vista Blue Screen of death error and I get to reboot.
I then attempted to access the disk manually and it tells me I need to insert a disk. It's as if the drive won't acknowledge DVD's. Also both drives are doing this. It appears to be a driver issue.
the drives are a Sony/NEC joint venture hybrid and there are no drivers I can find. Anyone have any suggestions that don't involve flammable materials, or 10lb sledge hammers?
