I love Directx and can forgive it for killing OpenGL for the simple fact it makes playing games so much easier .  CD and DVD should use standard drivers in Windows, perhaps look at updating your motherboard chipset drivers which will install new IDE controller drivers with any luck.

Thx, I'll check again, last time I did they had still the old ones for my mobo on Asus site. I fear a malfunctioning copy protection program corrupted them each time I repaired them, though, as the drive was recognized again for a short time even copying generic drivers from the Windows CD, just to stop working correctly shortly after, and it's not faulty HW, under Linux it reads and writes correctly (although this Samsung is fussier with some blank CD-Rs than the Sony I had before). I preferred OpenGL too, but I can't deny since version 5 MS did a good job with DirectX.


Give this a whirl:

Thank you, I don't rememeber whether this was a solution I already tried or not, but trying won't hurt.
