DVD-ROM-CD-RW Issue - enigma - 2004-11-29
Hi, I am having some issues with my dvd rom and cd rw. it reads the dvd rom but not the cd rw. Also when i try to play a dvd movie it locks my computer solid, i am thinking there might be an issue between the 2 drives... I am hoping there is a way i can configure it to detect my cd rw and that may solve the problem...

my first guess is check the master/slave jumpers on the drives if they are on the same IDE chain

Ok, if they are what then? do i move the jumper? if so where hehe thanks dude...

try each device separatley. does it work correctly (with the other completely disconnected)
if so it may be a jumper issue
one should be master. one should be slave
or both on cable-select
of course it could also be a duff IDE cable
cheers

Ok I had 2 roms in it and it works fine. 1 Rom being the cd-rw and the second just a normal rom. Only time i get an error is when the dvd rom is installed.
