Microstudio 3.004 was still using the old method of drive interface and so will not recognize the new Plextor drive. You need to upgrade your Microstudio to the latest version.

According to your first post this was a new CD drive. However, if it is working with Hoster 3.316 which is using mmc interface for connecting to the drive, then Microstudio 4.001 should also work as it uses the same interface. Microstudio 3.004 used a hardware specific interface meaning if the drive does not have driver information included in Microstudio's library file then it usually won't work.

I guess I should have stated it was a unused drive. It is a new left over model.
Thanks for the advice.

It sounds like the drive is the problem. Does Microstudio recognize the Toshiba internal drive?

Yes, but when I select the save button on the Default Drives screen the program and the computer locks up.
