    I had to reboot after spyware problem crashed my registry. Now my burner drive only reads cds. Tried updated firmware, reinstalling software, updating drivers, but not getting anywhere! After going through the process of img burn I got an error:


    I/O ERROR
    GWA4164BE113(E:)(ATA)
    ScsiStatus o x O2
    INTERPRETATION CHECK CONDITION
    CDB: 2A00 00 00 51 20 00 00 20 00


    Which I think means my drive is not reading discs I tried Sony and Nexxtech. Neither works. Any suggestions? When I go to MY COMPUTER and check drive it states its working properly.? It even states its DVD-RW DRIVE (E:)

    try uninstalling the drive and the IDE controllers reboot and let windows reinstall it, if it still won't read disc then its time for a new driver/burner. the good news is a good drive only runs about 30.00 dollars
