Internal DVD RW Driver

[lee]

xp has no dvdrw drivers they ALWAYS come on cd
the next version of windows will only have built in
drivers for dvd+rw not dvd-rw, if you have dvd-rw you
will need drivers from the disk then too.

I just installed a NEC DVD RW drive and it didn't come with any drivers. I
didn't have any problems.
