WIndows95 will only acknowledge a CD-R drive as a CD Rom drive, a
reader drive. When you install your CD-R application software it adds
drivers to the system that allows Windows to recognize the drive as a
Writer. Have you installed the software that came with the drive or
other CD-R software on the system?
I have a SCSI 4x8 drive on my network server. The drive only shows
up as a CD rom reader drive until I install the Adaptec Easy CD Creator
software I use.
