Hello guys,
This sucks...
I've got a Gigabyte K8NXP-SLI (amd64 939 - nvidia chipset) with 2 HDs connected on SATA, 2 NEC optical drives DVDROM/DVDRW sharing one IDE cable and proper(?) positions for their jumpers; DVDROM Master & DVDRW Slave.
My computer was just running fine until a few weeks ago when due a power failure I had to get a new PSU. I installed the new PSU, booted up computer normally, wanted to burn a disc, DVDROM ejected asking for a blank disc!!! (nooo, so far DVDRW has been the man for the job; what's on you now?) I think I have updated some drivers at that time but I can't say if that update was before of after the problem. To me it seems irrelevant.
Last I know BIOS and Windows always get the reverse master/slave settings for my optical drives. Tried changing the jumpers, same behavior in windows but not in BIOS. Tried uninstalling the drives from device manager, bump, no gain.
Although I shared a laugh with my friends about it, no one had offered a working solution and it really starts getting frustrating!
Any ideas? I'll be here to complete the picture for you if you would like me to.
Many thanks!
