hey guys, i just built my new gigabyte computer and its AMAZZZINGGGG!!! its about 4 in the morning so i'll give yall the specs tomorrow sometime. my question is that i have a dvd-rw and it was working perfectly when it was in my old computer. so i was putting it into my new computer (about 10 mins later) , and i had to take the plate off. so i put it in my new computer and it wasn't working. i have a regular cd-rw and it works perfectly, *the cd-rw is set as master*. so i put in the dvd-rw *as slave* and the power didn't even come on. everything was set up perfectly. i switched drive posistions and everything. the cd-rw works great but the dvd-rw still gets no power. i then put the dvd-rw back into my old computer, and the power still doesn't come on. I finally decided that my dvd-rw is broken, but i decided to try it in my new computer one more time. i plugged it in and the power still didnt' come on, but i looked in bios and it said that it was connected...... i was amazed. no power....but somehow connected.... i took the slave jummper cable off and turned the computer back on and the connection went away. i tryed various jumper settings but still not a flicker. maby i could have been a little rough with taking off the plating??, but i couldn't imagin me breaking the dvd-rw just by taking the plate off...??? All help would be appriciated. Thanks!!!!
