Ok first if you are on windows xp and is up to date, this driver is supported by the system, you should not have to use an installation CD this is mere propaganda and this "programs" are not so useful and they may be too much for your computer to handle. However if you also have a second driver already installed in your pc you have to know about master and slave, your hardware should have come with simple instructions on how to make it slave you want to do this because your already installed driver is master. Now second option is that make the system scan for "any hardware changes" then if it need it go to the manufacturer website and download the software from there, if none of this works try to elaborate a little more about your situation. I will be happy to help!

I have the same problem with a similar LG DVD writer drive, every time I connect my drive to the motherboard with an 80 flat cable; Windows recognize it but then the "services.exe" start to use 100% of my CPU making impossible to do anything else. When I restart the machine with my drive unplugged, everything works fine again. I even tried changing the drive from a new one from the store but it happens again, I changed the flat, the power supply, everything but always with the same bad results.

My lg super multi gsa-h55n dvd rewriter does not see the cd in it.
Bad cd, reinstall your burning soft, firmware update, jumper settings, loose cable, also you realize this drive needs to be a slave since it is a burner....

If only one hd and one cdrom (your dvdrw) use it as the primary slave rather than a secondary master.

Nero cannot burn DVD inserted in my LG GSA-H55N DVD-RAM rewriter
Have you tried other discs, or just that one? It might be that the disc you've inserted already has something written on it, and you can't burn a DVD-R twice. From the error message you're getting, that would be my guess.

Cannot back up DVDs on LG Super Multi 20x DVD rewriter
You definitely should call LG--your new gaget isn't working, and it is under warranty. Or try going to their website to see if they have any software upgrades--sounds like you have a bummer, and perhaps a reinstall from their website will do the trick.

Choppy video on my LG DVD Super multi DVD Rewriter GSA-H44 N/L
There are many causes one a slow processor speed ( even by pentium III 933mhz stuttered when i was playing divx) two needing to update the dvd software . Third the lense being dirty spay compressed air into the drive.

Super multi dvd writer gsa-h55n
Well, since I received a solution from MAXTRIXKHAN, I just wanted to check back with NCIX.com, and here is a recap of what I did, and what they told me...

After a few tries, I had to contact LG Customer service.
I tried to burn to...

-Maxell CD-R, no problems,
-TDK DVD-RW, no problems,
-Verbatim DVD+R, Computer hangs.

Well, I bought this DVD-Writer to replace my old GSA-4167B, and LG customer service told me that this DVD-Writer does not support the Verbatim DVDs.

So, if you have plenty of Verbatim DVDs, you should forget about this writer.

Supported DVDs...
Maxell, Sony, TDK

Will have to send it back to NCIX

So beware
