Yes, you need to install the LightScribe System software first. Get it here:

IMHO, the best LightScribe/label printing software is SureThing.

| The DVD burner must have the LightScribe feature (and logo on the faceplate). Most newer ones do.
Naturally, LightScribe media is also required.

| Nice disk howie. It makes me want to try mine out. I've had the burner for a year and have been too cheap to buy any lightscribe disks. 
I will now.  |

| I just use them for stuff like OS backup/slipstream discs and other "special" stuff. Normally I just use the ubiquitous Sharpie.

Just remember... "Burn-Flip-Label"
BTW, that's the same Samsung burner I have (PATA version).

I know this is a dumb question, but you are using LightScribe media, right?
If so, I'm thinking it might be a bad disc as I've used a few different brands (HP, TDK, Verbatim) and media types (DVD/CD) over the last few years and they always worked just fine. The other possibility is a bad drive but I highly doubt it.

Little Falls, NJ | Oh, LOL...OK.
I looked up your drive (google search) and found it does not have Lightscribe.
BTW, how does the end user replace a drive when they have those custom panels?

The Front Panel can be removed to remove
the DVD Drive. Just a few More step than a
Custom Build Computer. Maybe can remove
after open the side Panel as well. But I haven't
look into that...!
