drivers
 

desperately need some drivers for a LTC-48161H DVD-CDr combo drive, anyone know where I can get them from ?? all i can find is firmware updates..

also need some for a philips drive..

thanks, alex..

Drivers for DVD-ROM/RW drives ?. Must be a steam powered PC. P`N`P is a wonderful thing however have a look here:

The only drivers you'll ever need for that would be a dos aspi driver :confused:

Why do you need a windows driver :confused: If the bios detects it, it will be installed automatically by windows on boot up.

pc is 18months old..

it detects it, but says that it has issues.. thought i would be able to download a new driver from the web ??

getting this message on both drives..

Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot find the hardware device. (Code 41)

Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

Normally a code 41 is this:

Recommended resolution

A driver was loaded but Windows cannot find the device. This error occurs when Windows does not detect a non-Plug and Play device.

If the device was removed, uninstall the driver, install the device, and then click Scan for hardware changes to reinstall the driver. If the hardware was not removed, obtain a new or updated driver for the device.

If the device is a non-Plug and Play device, a newer version of the driver might be needed. To install non-Plug and Play devices, use the Add Hardware wizard. Click Performance and Maintenance on Control Panel, click System, and on the Hardware tab, click Add Hardware Wizard.

On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard.

will have another bash at it thanks..

btw, can i tell if they are plug and play ??

it is plug and play - here it is on the lite on site

many thanks.. :)

un-installed and still get the same message when going through the add hardware wizard ??

says on the lite-on site that it just uses the standard windows driver, going to remove the extra cd drive and try to get somewhere with it?

removed the extra drive and returned to standard,

removed the old drivers, and reinstalled them..

still getting the smae error code, and it is loading up 4 drivers, 3 of which are H + H scsi dvdrom device
the other being the ltc 48161H

no idea what to with it now..

Are you using the latest IDE cables ?

do have a new LG one, but it seems the same ?

btw, can you be of any help on my other post about the internet ?
