Started getting burn fails on my old dvd burner (NEC) and then realized that it was way too old. Picked this one up, came very quickly, removed the drivers on my old one, removed the old one, plugged the new one in, and XP took care of the rest. Burned my first dvd of the one that kept failing on me and worked on the first try! So far I'm happy.
