Hm... I'm afraid that your vendor is not right. I have Pioneer DVD-ROM 103S 5x/32x in my PC
and I don't have any problems with it. Of course You may have problems with playing movies, because NT 4.0 doesn't support directx 6.0 that most DVD players require. But it's not a problem with DVD itself. Received on Wed Jun 23 1999 - 08:32:23 CDT
