Will my Philips optical drive work with Windows 7/ Vista?

Published on 2017-08-24

Yes, you can use your DVD burner with Windows 7 and Windows Vista. There is no special driver software needed. The supplied software (“Nero Essentials”) is compatible with Windows Vista, but not with Windows 7. Windows 7 already includes its own standard built in functionality to burn CDs/DVDs. Alternative software can be found online. This is free and offers similar functionality (like Nero 9 Lite).
