I recently installed ME on a friends machine. He has an old creative dvd drive. It's a 5X and has a Dxr2 decoder card with it. Is there a driver for this card for ME? Also ME doesn't recognize the drive as a DVD drive, just CD-Rom. What's the deal with that?

hi ive been having the same problem. i havent been able to find any drivers for the Dxr2 board for windows ME. when i try to play a movie using the PC-DVD program it says it cannot find the card. i tried to contact creative but they said the card is not going to be suppored in Windows ME and that there are no plans to develop drivers. so i am forced to use a software decoder but i only have a Pentium II 333Mhz so the video isnt smooth and sound quality poor. I found one site http://www.visualdomain.net/ offering firmware upgrades but there is very little documentation and i dont know if it will work.

So it's not only me.
I'm buying a new dvd rom.
What a waste of time it was trying to make this thing work with Windows me.
