TO DOWNLOAD DRIVERS FOR LG GSA-T40N MULTI DVD
Windows XP/Vista/7 should automatically use its own drivers, so that you can read from CD/DVD disks.
You'll need "extra" software if you want to play a DVD-movie, or if you want to write CD/DVD disks,
e.g., 'PowerDVD' to "play", and Nero Burning to "write".

My disk drive doesn't detect burning media.
You MUST have software that is for burning a CD.
Some examples are "CD Creator", "Nero" and others.
These programs are OFTEN not included and MUST be purchased seperately.
