    [EDIT: Oops, there's another thread addressing the same thing...sorry guys...]

    I was wondering if any other m1330 owners have this problem:

    I put in a data dvd (with backed up files on it and etc) and the m1330 attempts to read it but then the only thing that shows up on windows explorer is the space avaliable on the dvd...if I double click on the drive, the dvd seems to have no content

    Other times,my m1330's windows explorer doesn't even register having a disc in the drive and automatically ejects the disc and says "please insert a disc" when I double click on the drive..

    I know that the discs are fine since they work with my desktop...

    Could this be a vista thing? My desktop runs on XP. or is it a m1330 slim drive problem?
