problem w/ cd-r and cd-rom under win xp

[shadows01]

i was using win me and my teac scsi 4x cd-r and toshiba 40x scsi cd-rom work fine.
after i upgraded to win xp, they dont work right now.
first, the light on teac cd-r was always blinking under win me, now it's solid light under win xp.
2nd, the toshiba cd-rom under easy cd creator 5 basic can not be detected corrected. on the cd copier mode, the read can not be detected as correct toshiba cd rom model, instead, it showed only drive id "E:" and the max read speed can only be 1x.
3rd, when i put the blank cd in teac cd-r under easy cd, it can not be detected (no problem before).

i am using adaptec 2940u2w scsi card.
i just updated the firmware for the scsi card. i tried to update the firmware for the teac (i think the model is 55s or something lke that) but the update problem can not be run under xp (showed "can not find file ??????")

anyone know about this problem?? what should i do???
please let me know...

Thank you

Good idea. I hadn't thought of that, but should have. Good catch 🙂
