Has anyone else encountered problems reading CD-Roms with this combo drive ?
I didn't have a problem until today, when I tried to install Quicktax 2003
(purchased from Intuit itself). The disc reads as empty but when it was
inserted in another drive it worked. All of my other software works.

I re-installed the drivers both in and out of safe mode and nothing. Also
installed a Roxio program for UDFs but nothing there either. Do any of you
know any fixes ?

I have also had this same problem before. It also affects my ability to
Play DVD's. Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. Was able to play one
earlier, then finished it. Stuck the second one in, and nothing! Ended
up having to reboot again. Ugh. What a problem.

Reading through this thread, I gotta wonder: Is Philips generally a name to
avoid these days ?

I've had my own issues with Philips over the years: driver problems with a
CDD-2000; over-heating problems with a CDD-2600; firmware issues with a
Omniwriter/26; a Philips/Magnavox DVD-405 on my home theater system that
after two years plays DVDs just fine but distorts the Audio on CDs; and what
seemd like a total lack of customer support at the time on the CDD2000 and
CDD2600 issues.

I can appreciate that Philips is the inventer and/or co-inventor on much of
this technology, I'd LIKE to support them. But I need to draw a line
somewhere...
