make sure you load the drivers for the dvd player either from the dvd that came with it or go to the manufactuers support page of the dvd player and download the drivers is the only way it will work
To work on what? If it is a generic, slimline external drive it should , it it is USB fitting, have a USB DATA CABLE AND A USB POWER CABLE. They do not require additional drivers. Do you have both cables?
If the device is 1394 firewire the same should apply I BELIEVE.
If you need more information can you please add thedetails of the hardware devices.
the USB port in the dvd player is to update it by the manufacturer. Unless the USB port is in the front then try going into the dvd players menu and have it search for devices, also make the content easy to find for dvd player, like have a VIDEO folder and put the media in there.
If it's a DVD/CDRW It can play DVD's but not burn them. It can burn CD-R and CD-RW. It should just plug into your USB port. Make sure you have the enhanced USB 2.0 drivers for your operating system. Also you will need power for the external box the drive is mounted in. My external box needs 115 volt power. This hooks to an AC adapter, and then to the external box. You will also need Power DVD or some othe player. Windows media player will play DVD's with out some third party software.
Is this an external drive? Here a tip: Anytime you use a peripheral with USB you must load the drivers first, then hook up the device. This is only with USB devices. So try uninstalling your DVD driver, unplug the DVD player, reload the driver for the DVD player, then hook the DVD player back up. That should take care of it.
Well you need to go to the website of the DVD manufacture and get the vista drivers for your device.
Vista does not have native support for most hardware, and very little backwards compatability.
I wish you success on finding the correct driver for your device.
Thank you,
