| I have been trying to get the thing installed into a dell 4300 dimension for the past 4 days and still no luck. Windows see's the drive but will not read any media including music, dvd(matrix), software, or blank media. But my computer system bios see's the drive as a unknown device. If anyone has any comments to this on how to fix it i would love a email Comments posted by Jan from United States, November 10, 2004. Rated this writer 1 of 10. |

| Writes to DVD+R (Fuji 4x, Maxell 4x, Verbatim8x) but cannot read using either of two Mintek 1600 players for a variety of disks. DVD-R(OPTODISCR004) and DVD+RW(Verbatim) disks CAN be read using Mintek 1600. Sony support does NOT have any answer! Comments posted by Dr. Dale Tompkins from United States, October 08, 2004.
