Just installed a Samsung SH-S203NBEBN DVD drive into my Vista 64 Ultimate machine, and I can read some files from a disc, e.g .dat files, pdf files but not others, in particular .exe files. It's a commercial disk that I'm trying to install some software from... It's beginning to to do my head in. Why would I be able to read some files and not others?

Is this Vista thing or something to do with the drive? Could Vista be blocking sensitive files i.e. .exe files?
