It reads fine. > This is not a problem with the drive, but... I have this drive with a Hollywood RealMagic Plus decoder card. The card has a serious incompatability with my 3Com 905B NIC. DVD's will play for one minute, (+ or - 10 seconds) then screen freeze, requiring a reboot, and often hosing the video drivers as well. Remove the NIC through Device Manager and DVD's play beautifully...It's a pain to re-install the NIC drivers everytime I want to play a DVD. Anyone have a fix? Besides replacing the NIC with another brand... Fatal Fool
