7200E CD-RW by HP

I have read lot of users posted their problems with using HP 7200 CD-RW series. I have the same situation. My Sony PentII-500Mhz are running fine with the HP-7200E CD-RW under windows 98. But since I installed windows 2000 Pro. then my CD-RW is no longer working. I have download/Updated drivers but it refused to run and crashed on me. I kind of gave up on the HP 7200E. Anybody have any ideas??

Thanks in advance.

Anthony

Re: 7200E CD-RW by HP

To fix this error what needs to be done is rename the driver files that EPAT150.EXE installed
EPATAPNT.INF to EPATAPNT.IN_ EPATAPNT.MPD to EPATAPNT.MP_ EPATAP9X.INF to EPATAP9X.IN_ EPATAP9X.MPD to EPATAP9X.MP_
***Rename these files in all instances that they are on the machine through find files/folders they are usually on the machine two or three times each. Then, you'll prolly have to reinstall the 2000 drivers and it should work. (Don't install the old drivers again because they are what caused this in the first place!)
