Changing out CD burner [message #78897]

Guys, my CD burner has bitten the dust and I am looking to replace it with
a DVD drive. I am a bit concerned as the last time I tried to add a Memorex
DVD burner (can't recall which model), it crashed my entire system and I
had to rebuild it from scratch. I recently purchased a LITEON CD/DVD burner
as it was one the only one I saw with Win 98 drivers. Any comments and or
suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I have yet to install the new
drive.

System spec's:

Win98se
512 Ram
Asus 8n8x motherboard
Asus 9600se dual head video PCI card
OS drive
Audio drive
Paris 3.0 3 card system

Thanks!

I've been using a Plextor with no problems whatsoever. I've been doing a
little experimenting creating CD+G discs, and found out that the Plextor is
the only one of the DVD drives I have that handles this format. Not that
you need it for that purpose, but it just gives me confidence that the drive
is built to be that flexible.

Thanks David. I finaly got enough courage to swap out the drive and the "Lite"
CD/DVD burner works like a charm and no crashes.
