464104 2006-06-18 08:58:00 Have you tried to remove and refit it, double checking all connections? Greg (193)
464105 2006-06-18 09:04:00 Is the DVD burner the only burner installed??

Or have you got a cd writer installed as well? (Whats in the first slot)?

If you have 2 burners (a cd and a dvd writer installed), I would check if you've jumpered one to Master and the other to slave.

And also make sure neither (if you're using 2 burners), are on the same IDE connection as a hard drive.

464106 2006-06-18 21:06:00 no i have removed it now cause i thought it was the problem it only started when we did that. When it was in i think hubby connected it to the slave connection i have opened the box a number of times and pushed things back and all. Another friend said something about reimageing and taking off the crative photo program off its really fustrating :groan: Jotaz (10577)
