Hello
My mate has FSX installed on Vista 32 OS computer. He went to install Ultimate terrain on it and there was no response from the DVD drive when the disc was put in.
When i went to My Computer to right click on the DVD drive, there was no response except the drawer re opened and a message came up asking for a disc to be put in the drive.
My mate also told me that he could now no longer play DVD films on the drive.
The drive would accept CD discs, and programs from them could be loaded.
The vendor of the computer has sent a new DVD drive to be fitted, but before we do that,I am wondering if this is a software matter.
I ask because my mate has since loaded some drivers ( Power dvd or something similar ) and the DVD will now play DVD films. But it will still not run programmes DVDs
Am I right in thinking that when a new DVD drive is fitted there have to be some drivers loaded for it to fully function?
I'm told it first used to fully function but then the problem of loading of DVD programmes and playing of DVD films occurred after a while.
Before swapping DVD drives would it be better to re load some drivers ( that would have come on discs with the computer ) and what would they be called?
I'm trying to save some unnecessary work here
TIA
