What media are you using, you don't say. Is this blank media or a
pre-recorded CD or DVD? If blank media remember that Win Me contains no
software to write CDS or DVDs and you will need to install the necessary
software such as for example Ahead's Nero. Explorer cannot natively
access a blank CD or DVD.

I have Windows ME with a Memorex branded internal DVD+RW drive that I
just installed.

Now, under my system properties, the drive is shown and supposedly
working properly. But my OS does not see any disc, and asks me to
put one in --- even though I already did.

I want to point out the driver is from Microsoft, and it's dated from
June of 2000.

I didn't get any drivers from the installation kit, and wonder if
that's not why the drive won't recognize media (nor, of course, play
it).

I'll go look around Memorex's site again for updated drivers, again.
The fist go-around did not prove successful.

But, perhaps someone has a suggestion that might work? Maybe using
another manufacturer's driver?

Thanks in advance,

Mr. Curious.
