Hey people!
I recently built a rig I've attempted to use two optical drives and they don't work. I can't even open the tray to insert the mother board boot disc.
I have a really old CDROM that I tried, it works (PC asks to insert boot cd) but the tray doesn't open. I'm wondering if it's a compatability issue but I've already checked pcpartpicker and it seems to be fine.
Processor: AMD FX 6300 6 core 3.5 GHz
Motherboard: M5A99FX PRO R2.0
Video Card: AMD R9 270 XFX
Extra PCIE cards: Asus Xonar DSX audio card
PSU: Corsair cx500m
HDD: WESTERN DIGITAL SATA 64MB 1TB
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Optical drive: LG WH16NS40 Internal Blu-ray Writer - BD-R/RE Support - 48x CD Read/48x CD Write/24x CD Rewrite - 12x BD Read/16x BD Write/2x BD Rewrite - 16x DVD Read/16x DVD Write/8x DVD Rewrite - Double-layer Media Supported - SATA/300 - 5.25" (WH16NS40)
This is really frustrating seeing as I work from home and I'm losing money as the days go by. I appreciate the time you take into helping me.
Thanks,
Bonatrick
I tried all the white Sata ports, no luck. I unplugged it and tried my old one again just to see if I didn't connect anything properly and it works fine but the tray is broken.
When I plug the new models, there isn't a light.. It's as if it doesn't obtain power
As for the bios, I've enabled both still nothing.
