I have an older LG DVD 16x read-only drive and I installed it last night.
What I did was hook it into the Slave part of the IDE cable that my CD Burner is hooked into. When I boot the drive appears to work, like I can open and close it and such. The problem is, though, when I go to access it, there is a single drive D that says it is a CD/DVD drive and refuses to read and write anything. The Cd and DVD drives are seprate but the machine think's it is a single drive. Could this have to do with the drives running on the same cable? Please help.
