Plextor PX-800A DVD Super Multi Drive Burner Questions & Answers
Plextor Problem
I had problems with that drive as well ,, i found it utterly stupid , in order for me to get it to work i had to format my computer and reinstall everything. apparently the signiture from your old drive is still in there or nero 8 has a bug.. and cant use the new drive sig. and way i used nero 8 as well and wound up formatting ( nero 7 ) worked thought but the system becomes unstable and starts freezing
I recommend you format if you want to use that drive
DVD drive
turn it of for about two hours the hard drive is probobly too hot =]]
It doesnt read install or
That usually means it needs replacement. As long as you see the drive light up and spin trying to read things then you know the problem is in the drive. No lights can be power or cables. You may have noticed that it wouldn't write dvd's then it wouldn't read them, and finally it wouldn't read the cd's.Thats a typical failure pattern. When these drives fail the heads get out of alignment. So the dvd's have problems first as they require a lot more accuracy. The cd's are relatively coarse and tolerate a lot more mis alignment. This is repairable but definitly not worth doing. when these were worth hundreds of dollars we would realign the heads but they are so cheap these days you should just get a new one.

What do i need to use my intervideo windvd creator
Find Serial# and Model# of your burner off of the TOP of the burner. Go to Plextor website, when you get to the website, Look for "Updates" or "downloads" and find the Model# update page for your Image Drive. Now, look-up your Model and download any updates for the burner. Some Manuf. have a software program they want you to download first, then you open that in your Desktop, while online, then it will have you type in the serial# and Model# from there, which it will do from then on.

Plextor PX-712A won't read or play CD's, but will
If it won't read any CDs at all, Music, Data, etc. then the CD Laser has died. These have a dual laser system, one for CD and one for DVD. You will need to get a new drive if you want CD functionality.
Sorry for the bad news!
