Hi, I am not sure if it's a hardware problem or a software problem, but it seems like the problems started with fc6, that is I dont recall having these isuues with 4 and 5... I have a dvd/cdr combo drive... The problem is some dvd's are not being mounted, and some are, but sometimes after a couple of tries the disk will automount, other times if I reboot with the dvd in the drive it's there, and other times it's not. I have no problems with CD's in the same drive. Reading and writing works fine. Any one else having dvd playback problems? And is there any way other than buying a new drive to prove it is a hard ware problem? -- Rob
