I've had this burner (DUW1608/ARR) for about 6 months and have had no problems with it until today.
I went to burn some files to a dvdr and noticed that Windows (XP 64-bit edition) was detecting my dvdrw drive as a cd drive.
When I take the dvdr media out it goes back to dvd/dvdrw drive. But again, once I put it back in, it lists as a cd drive and won't burn any dvd's with any program. It will however suggest I can burn CDR/CDRW's. I was using Nero and the option to change from cd or dvd burning is now gone and only allows me to burn cd's. I've tried different dvdr media to no avail. Normal dvds and dvd-based pc games seem to work fine.
I've tried removing the upper and lower filters from the {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} key in the registry. There was only an upperfilter and removing it did nothing. I also set the dvdrw drive to a master drive and still nothing. I even disabled the bult-in windows burning feature.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
