What? I've had a couple of different drives in different Windows XP machines, and they all worked fine. I can't think of any drives I've bought at local stores which have been "very problematic".

Seriously. Where do you get your information? Name me one brand one can buy at Best Buy, Frys, Office Depot, that does not work with Windows XP. Or is "decidedly problematic".

Hell, I have a Dual Processor Pentium III (upgraded from a dual Pentium II) from 1997 that is running Windows XP, and has had a couple of different drives in it. Currently it has a hand me down Pioneer 104 DVD drive in it. It hasn't been problematic in the least.

Well, for one, DVD drive support on Windows, especially WinXP, is decidedly problematic. It's not provided by the OS natively, but by add-in software.

WinXP, in particular, has similar problems with CD-R/RW drives, ones which are inherent in the OS, and not correctable.

Optical drives with WinXP are very problematic.
