Re: dvd burner can't read cds



The new drive has an audio cable to connect it to the audio card?

Subject: dvd burner can't read cds

Maybe a little off-topic: hardware issue with lenny.

I've just replaced a broken LG dvd burner on my parents pc with an
ASUS drw-22b2s (IDE interface) and it works fine except it cannot read
audio cds. This didn't happen with the old one. Anyway serpentine or
cdcd or else fail or return errors on lenny. I checked on win2k (it's
a dual boot pc) and programs that use analog audio for cds fail while
other that use digital audio work.
I also tried installing the burner on another pc (mythtv box with
etch) and had the same problems. Can't test it on my desktop 'cause it
has SATA interface only.
I went to the shop and asked for another unit (same model because it's
the only one they sell with IDE interface) and had the same problems.
So I imagine there must be some issue with this particular model or
maybe some lethal mixture of motherboard, chipset and burner. Anybody
had similar experiences? Do you have some hints?

Actually there's a SATA connector on the gigabyte 7vt600 motherboard
on the pc but I never used it and it was quite experimental at the
time it was bought (maybe 6 years ago). Should I try with a SATA
burner?

Thanks
