Get yourself a copy of MSCDEX from the windows 98 boot cd and paste it into the Startup folder in the Start Menu. Then restart.

It should work on most drives and models.

Re: lightscribe dvd super multi drive cd writer not working

I have a HP Pavilion Elite 210f.  The DVD drive is a Supermulti blu-ray with light scribe technology drive.  When I try regular DVD movies I only get sound - no video, and when I try to play Blu-Ray, I get nothing.  I hooked in an externat DVD player and it too only plays the sound.  What can I do to fix the problem?  It is most likely a software program - driver.

 

Thanks
