i have a NEC DV-5700A DVD-ROM.
i recently formatted my computer and installed windows xp
since then dvd-rom fails to recognise dvds with UDF file format.
dvds having CDFS file format such as given by DIGIT work properly.

ERROR MESSAGE:WINDOWS HAS FAILED TO RECOGNISE THE FILE FORMAT
OF THE DEVICE.

PLEASE HELP....
I AM NOT ABLE TO WATCH ANY OF MY MOVIES WHICH ARE ON DVDS....

Please try updating the drivers for ur DVD drive via the manufacturers website.Sumtimes, the CD ROM also fails to recognise its own file system wich is CDFS,so by jus updating the drivers/files solves the problem. are u using WIN XP with SP1 or SP2 ???


cheers n e-peace....

I too have problem of TOSHIBA DVD-Rom SD-M1712. It reads Digit DVD in Windows98SE but fails in Windows Xp-SP2.
Error message is:
"Windows cannot read from this disk. The disk might be corrupted, or it could be using a format that is not compitable with Windows"
Any help?
