[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 959883, member: 56231"] Exactly, which makes me lean more towards my second supposition, ie, a faulty connection; that, and the fact that the previous optical drive worked okay. The drive 'knows' a disk is there, but the playback function isn't working, in other words - faulty interface. [size=1]While you've got the drive out of its bay, why not try a connection with a USB/ATA adaptor. I realise it's an extra expense, and a hassle in buying an adaptor - assuming one is readily available - but what it will do is make it easier to test the faulty connection theory.[/size] [/QUOTE]
