    Hmm strange, never ran into that type of problem when I uninstalled Roxio on my SZ.

    Anyways, when you right click on it when in Device Manager, are you able to uninstall? Sometimes that may fix it, to uninstall the device and have the system scan for changes... which makes it detect and reinstall.

    If that does not work, double left click it and what does it say on Device Status?
