After Installing Vista - DVDRW Not Working

That's basically all that happened. I installed Vista and everything hardware-wise started uo nicely, except for the DVD RW Drive (which is a Lite On). It still reads audio discs, but when I put in a data disc it the system just freezes. Any idea as to what's going on, and what I'm supposed to do now?

It'sa well known driver issue with a number of DVDR/W drive manufacturers. Try searching on MS's support site. There's some useful advice here too: http://discuss.extremetech.com/forums/1004376397/ShowThread.aspx
