Hello !
Thank you for posting at Microsoft Answers forum !
In a normal working condition this should work ! Generally USB devices do work automatically, but in some cases problems might occur. you can try updating the drivers using windows update feature.

Tried that. Win7 says that it is using the best driver. I disagree. Drive works fine on XP box BTW.

Additional info:
Rosewill said that it is a Windows driver problem.
TEAC said that it was a Rosewill problem.
Drive works fine in an XP system.
What I was thinking of trying:
Uninstall driver
Reboot
Shutdown
plug in drive when system power is off
Boot up
Maybe the drive needs to get recognized in the bios for it to work properly? Any other ideas? What about a "generic" driver?

Insert disk, drive spins up and sometimes shows volume info but disk is inaccessable.
What happens when to try to access the disk? Do you get an error message?
Also, can you try a "clean boot" and see if it makes any difference accessing the drive:

Follow Step 1 to clean boot and Step 7 to return to a normal startup.

When I try to access the disk it stalls out. I have to pull the usb plug out and reinsert to get it to stop the "spinning blue circle of death". Some more info:
A couple of times I have been able to access the disk and see the programs on it. The drive stops spinning though and I can't get anything to work.
If I eject a disk and put in another one nothing happens. If I pull the plug and reinsert it, it will briefly spin up and show the volume info but the disk is otherwise inaccessable.
I have Daemon Tools lite (for win 7) installed. That is the only program I could think of that would conflict with the drive but I have never had a problem with it in the past.
I finally got through to an Acer tech support guy and he suggested I try the following:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/314060
Does anyone have an opinion on the viability of this fix? I read the problem description and it sounds a bit different than what I am experiencing.
I am at work and can't try it now. I will try it tonight as well as the clean boot. The only other thing I could think of is that the USB sockets for some reason aren't putting out enough juice to power the drive.... I don't think this is the problem though. I am using one of those y shaped usb 2-1 connectors for extra power and supposedly these drives can work with only one end of the plug in. I have also tested the other sockets with thumbdrives and mouse receivers.

It is possible the drive is underpowered through the USB ports.
Can you try using a power adapter?
Also, you can try the MS KB article fix but, as you suggest, your situation is different.

I am having this same problem on 2 machines, both running windows7.
One is a desktop tower with plenty of power and both of the dvd power usb connectors are plugged in. The dvd spins up, the system assigns it a drive letter but it stalls out for at least 3 minutes. It might then "wake" back up, spin and then show drive contents.
Second is an asus 1000H with 2 gb memory and 160 gb hard drive. It may or may not recognize this drive when plugged in, again, it spins and then stalls out.
Windows 7 says the driver's fine. Rosewill doesn't have any drivers available.

Did anyone find a solution to this problem?
I'm having the same problem.
Well, almost.
I have the same drive, and it reads and burns DVDs fine.
But CDs are another story. It might read the top level directory of the disc, and list the sub directories, but each of these sub directories will be empty. Or the drive might sit and just once, and I've even had it make the system become unresponsive. After putting the CD in, Windows 7 will not recognize when the disc is taken out. Even if another disc, a DVD even, is put in. It will just sit there and list the contents of the first CD that inserted, and never refresh itself until it is disconnected from the computer and reconnected.
I've used this same drive on two desktops, a nettop, a netbook, a laptop, and a tablet pc, all running XP, and it worked fine.
What I'm having a problem with now is a PC that was running XP, that was upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium (professional wasn't in the budget) .
Like I said, it's reading DVDs ok, but not CD.
BUT other computers running XP can read those same CDs without issue.
I didn't contact TEA, but Rosewill does say there's an issue with the Windows 7 driver.
They've provided links to tweaking registry entries, but my system has none of the values listed to edit.
I should also note that the links that Rosewill provided me were to sites that had fixes posted for this before Windows 7 was release. I guess they fixes were hacks for release candidate or beta versions of Windows 7.
And my apologies if my comments here are out of place. I wasn't sure if I should start a new thread or not. I think the original poster and I are having the same problem, with the same hardware.

Ok, the
-------------------------------------
Reboot your computer.
On startup Press F8.
From this menu select Disable Driver Signature verification.
Now boot your computer and let us know if the DVD drive works correctly.
-------------------------------------
suggestion seems to have worked for me.
Guess I should of actually tried the suggested fix before going on that long spiel (but, in my defense, nothing else I tried worked!).
Much thanks.
I wonder if I'm going to have to select that option every time I reboot now?....
