I've installed Vista Ultimate 64 on my Ferrari 4005 notebook. Everything was OK, till I tried to install a couple of utilities from a CD. I noticed that my DVD-Ram was not shown in the explorer!!! In device manager, it sees the Ram drive but having a notification saying something like ..."this device information in the registry, fails to operate the drive..."

Apparently the OS itself modified the registry! I'm curious whether this happened to anybody else. I checked the BIOS and Ram-Drive was there, so I reinstalled Vista 64 smoothly, after installation I checked Device Manager, voila! ram drive is there (Mat****a UJ-845s)...

Then I installed Office 2007, Nero, Vista Manager 1.08, Acrobat Reader, and guess what after rebooting ram drive was not there... Any suggestions?

Ferrari 4005:

AMD Turion 64
1.5 Gb Ram
100 Gb HDD
Mat****a UJ-845s
ATI X700 - 128 Mb Video card etc.

I'm having more problems with the finished produce than I ever had with all the s - Honest I had my first BSOD this morning, and the more I try to fix the more VIDEO problems I have (yes I have stopped) now IE7 seems to be cracking up...

As you know.. DVD drives hold their driver and firmware internally... I would suggest upgrading these from the manufacturers website... The issue could be due to a program you are installing (I would suggest it is probably Nero) so I would install them one at a time to see when the problem starts.
