it reads CD's DVD's with out a problem but when i put a blank DVD into the drive,
the drive icon in MY COMPUTER changes from a DVD-Ram Drive to a CD Drive and the blank disc shows as having 0 bytes capacity.
ive had a look around on google looks like theres quite a few peeps with this problem but couldnt find a solution.
