Is DMA enable on the drive settings or is it off. check in device manager and bring up the properties on the IDE channel the drive is on. Change it to the oposite it is at and see if it helps.

It depends if it is on the primary or secondary, generally it will be secondary master. Make sure to have your DVD writer set as a master mind you. Sorry if this sounds really newbie like ;-)

Yes, Sony has to be master. If you set it as a slave, It wouldn't work properly.
