The driver you need can be sent to you by Media Vision tech support or downloaded from their BBS after they verify that you bought the drivers in the first place and issue you a password. The driver is written by Trantor and I believe the current version is 1.46F. Media Vision can not post this driver on CIS or as an open D/L on their BBS because of licensing restrictions. I write reviews part time and I understand your frustrations. The reviews are often written from spec sheets as it gets expensive shipping all that hardware around. Sometime the spec sheets list features that are planned, but not yet released or that they expect to release by press time. This means drives they are currently shipping are photo CD-ROM compatible, but all the old stock on dealer's shelves is not upgraded. The NEC upgrade is provided at no cost and that at least is good news. I realize it does cost you postage, labor and the loss of the drive for two weeks, but you should be thankfull that an upgrade is available. This route is not available for many others. I lucked out with the Sony 531, but it is not multisession compatible and no upgrade has been announced to make it multisession compatible. BTW I DON'T write reviews from press releases they are all hands on.
