not fair!

I suggest you return this one (did you check the latest drivers?).

Did you activate a region code on it cause that's NOT needed!

Triv, i set it to slave, and plugged it in...

Maybe try a different IDE cable, could be something wrong with the connector.

[P-Dub]

For 15 quid, might as well RMA it and not worry about it anymore...

I agree with what Paul has said to a certain extent, but you all know i am after performance, so i aint putting an optical and a HD on the same channel, and like i said, it might just be coincidence that when i had the Optical and the HD on the same channel in my IIS i started to have data going missing. Its all about whether you are willing to accept that slight loss in performance. I'm not. Ever. I dont spend huge amounts of cash making my machine fast as hell just to have it slowed down by an optical drive...

What's wrong with IIS Fluffy? At least the language i use looks like english rather than Alien

Mmmm I have my Harddisk and DvD play on IDE 1 and my burner on IDE 2 and sometimes my PC isn't starting rights BUT I can make good copies of CD's and copies from my Harddrive?
Those days of running games from swapiong between HD and CD are over as most game developers make sure that all files are copied to the Harddrive for better performance so I don't see a point in having them seperated?

P.S. So your problem is solved |Fury|?

well no, I'm going to have to RMA the drive so the issue of not being able to play ut2k4 is still there  maybe i'll have to install it on my office machine (the one with the dvd burner in it).. it's an xp2700 with 1gb ram and a ti4600 in it so it might cope ok

scoob - no its not a cable problem - have used different cables with the same result

[Trivulator]

Did you try a CD in it?

[Arathrael]

Did you put the DVD in the right way up?
