CDRW and DVDRW issues

[gt07]

i have 2 brand new drives DWU18A and CRX320E as i've built a new system. They are both behaving exactly the same as they're manufactured by the same company. Here's the deal:

- Both are able to read all media
- Both are able to burn with supplied "NTI CD-Maker 6 Gold"
- Nero 6 Ultra claims they are being used by another program
- Nero 5.5 burns coasters
- Easy CD Creator is unable to detect either
- Global Hawk CDRWIN is unable to detect either

I've got UYS1 firmware on it right now. I'm just REALLY lost why it's able to read and burn with that one piece of software but other software packages are giving me various errors.

Please if anybody can help, throw out some suggestions and i will forever be grateful.

Thanks plenty

what manufacturer and a link to the drives would help sounds like a firmware issue to me though

Trying to avoid flashign to liteon firmware at all cost.

Since posting I've gotten CDRWIN to work properly. I'm wondering if something just isn't installed that is required to be recognized by the others
