With this old OS having limits on filesizes of over 4GB and more, it's likely the 9+GB DVD burning could have severe issues in this OS.
Also, your DVD recording software could cost more than what this drive with the bundled software costs.
I'd return the bare drive and get a bundle.

Hi there i have:
amd xp 2400+ proccessor
20gig harddrive and 512sdram running windows ME.
The problem is when I try to burn a dvd with my LG 8x DVD DUAL R/RW/RAM Int Ide Burner - OEM it never works.
It shows up in my computer and reads dvds fine.
Any ideas?
