I know, on every site / in near every group 'they' tell me a driver for a
burner under XP-SP3 isn't neccesary. Forget it.

Hi.
Here a pc with windows xp-sp3 on it and a Lite-on dvdrw LH-18A1P installed.
Worked fine for many years.
Bought a dvd +R with 8,5 Gb space on it. To be able to use this disc, sales
told me to upgrate the firmware. Could have been so, and so I did. Updating
succesfull. Restart: yes.

Now: new hardware found, request for the driver disk.
Don't have it :-((

I don't dare to burn this 8,5Gb disc, it might not work.

Please help

Where can I find a driver for the LH-18A1P?
Any one of you able to zip the files from the original disc to burn a new
one, or an iso? Sending via Rapidshare may be?

TIA
Frans

I've got this model.
Looking in Device Manager for the device/Driver tab, shows Microsoft
driver 5.1.2535.0.
I'm sure I've burnt a few dual DVDs in the past, and was OK

It isn't. End of discussion.

Thank you. This is firmware and because of flashing this, the pc asks now
for a place to download the driver, under 'new hardwre found'. So I still
need the original data cd from Lite-on.
