Ripper,
I have another suggestion or actually a finding I just went through. This is the configuration of my system:
Primary IDE Channel: (Flat IDE Cable - normal one you get when you buy drives)
Maddog 16xDVD9a2 (my dvd burner) - slave
Western Digital 40gb 7200 2mb IDE HDD - Master
Secondary IDE Channel: (Round IDE cable, 18", i purchased A GOOD WHILE BACK - not sure if 100 or 133)
Hitachi 60gb 7200 2mb HDD - Master
Sony CD-RW burner - Slave
With this setup I am having the problems listed:
DVD Burner burns. Put movie in standalone dvd player and have issues (sometimes) with it playing DVD movie). I put burnt DVD back in my burner on computer and I start having the problems with it NOT reading the DVD.
Now I have this configuration:
Primary IDE Channel: (Flat IDE Cable - normal one you get when you buy drives)
DVD Burner - Master
Sony CD-RW Burner - Slave
Secondary IDE Channel: (Round IDE cable, 18", i purchased A GOOD WHILE BACK - not sure if 100 or 133)
Old Creative DVD 12x DVD-ROM drive player - Slave
Western Digital 40gb 7200 2mb IDE HDD - Master
Now in this new configuration I turn computer back on. Now I put the same DVD I burnt into my burner and woila it reads it fine and plays it fine, etc.
Even the god forsaken Imation burn I did that would not read before reads perfectly fine now as well.
Could my problem be my IDE cable then? It sounds real likely to me. Maybe I should just go out and grab a new IDE round cable and reset all this back up and see how it does.
BTW, Thanks for the patience on helping me with this. I am real computer savvy but this had me kinda stumped there.
