dvd driver problem

I hope we find an answer to this on... I have an extra
dimension to add to this problem. After upgrading to XP
home Ed. NETHER of my drives recognizes the presence of a
DVD. I have tried different apps (WinDVD 4.0, Power DVD)
with the same result. Reinstalled the hardware, driver...
Every other format (Music CD, Games, Rewritables etc...)
works fine. Only DVD give message: NO DISK

Anyone? Please!

I installed the DVD burner in my computer, WINXP tried to install driver but
could not find it. I can run any program to burn DVD.

Hai

Did you install third party burning software such as Roxio or Nero?
