Hi, Recently I built a new machine and had a sata cable less than what i needed, so i installed everything but the DVD drive.

PC worked fine the whole day with a lot of restarts and updates and it always booted fine.

The next day i bought a sata cable and installed the DVD drive. The PC started giving me problems booting up. It would get stuck on the Manufacturers logo and never boot until I open the DVD tray.

I have tried a different DVD drive and the system works fine with it. but the one i have, keeps on getting my pc stuck on boot.

I have disabled it from boot.

Any ideas why this might be happening?

I took it to the supplier and he tested it, and it worked fine on his machine. So he did not want to change it. He asked me to take the whole pc instead and it's not worth the time i guess.
It costs 15 euro so its not a big deal but it's irritating not knowing what the problem is.

Thanks for your reply by the way :)
