My vanilla CD-ROM is slave to a Plextor 708A DVD writer. Both are
connected on the primary IDE connector on an Asus PG5D1 motherboard.
The DVD works fine but the CD-ROM cannot read data even though it is
recognized by the system.
Event Manager says:
IO_ERR_CONTROLLER_ERROR
Message: The driver detected a controller error on %1.
Any ideas on how to remedy the situation? I've replaced drives and
cables and the Device Manager says the CD-ROM is working fine.
Should I chain the CD-ROM as a slave to a hard drive instead and chain
the DVD as slave to a second hard drive and put those into a Secondary
IDE connection?
Any help gratefully appreciated.

- 1. can dvd-writable drives work with older motherboards?
Hi, I've got a question that I'm hoping somebody in this newsgroup could help me with. Can a DVD-(re)writable drive work with any motherboard's IDE channels, or is a bios upgrade needed with some motherboards to get the DVD-writable drive to burn DVD's? Specifically, I've got an older PC (PIII 450 128MB Win98FE) with an older motherboard (Biostar M6TZA). Can I hook up any DVD-(re)writable drive up to it and be able to burn right out of the box? Thanks in advance. - 2. Is it possible to choose a better way?

I have and Emprex 4x dvd +- RW drive. I can burn DVDs with no issues, but I can not burn a CD. What occurs is that the first 50% of the files can be read and the rest can not. The burn process does not give me any errors from the software or drive. I am using the raxio software that came with the unit to burn the CDs. Also tried 3 different brands and different speeds 40-16x but no luck. Any Ideas?

3.No Music from Cd -Rom Drive when Music CD Inserted
Before I installed my new m/b , ( an Azus K8V SE Deluxe ) , I could play music CD's on the CD-ROM drive . This was with the old m/b which had no on-board sound but had a sound card installed. The Asus board has an on-boared sound chip and no sound card. I seem to remember that the previous set-up had a connecting lead between the sound card and the CD-ROM drive which I now do not have . Could this be the reason for the lack of output from the MUSIC CD ? If it is - do I have to have such a connection between the CD-ROM drive and the m/b somewhere using such a lead in order to get the drive to play music ? Does such a lead connect somewhere on the m/b in such cases where the board has on-board sound ? B.N. to reply by e-mail remove "admiral_"
4.Trying to boot Linux with live CD killed by CD-ROM
I tried to boot Damn Small Linux from a CD but it failed sometime in the middle of the process. I hit the reset button to start over and now I cannot use my CD-ROM. It will not boot from the CD drive and even in Windows if I put in a music CD it makes sounds like it's looking for something then ejects. Was something of the failed boot saved in some persistant CD drive storage? How do I get my CD-ROM back from the dead?
