I have a pentium 4 pc. It is assembled and have a cd-dvd combo drive. There is no manufacturer name/label. Initially I was using win 98 with nero burn for burning cds. Win 98 identified the drive as sony crx 320E. Then I changed the OS to win xp with sp2. XP also identified the drive as sony crx 320E. But the drive doesnot read the dvds, but was reading dvds when the OS was win 98. Properties of the drive indicate dvd reading capabilities. I have flashed the drive with latest firmware for sony crx320E. But is of no use. Sony web site does not support this drive. please help
