Burning Problem - Dvd drive error?

[Thingal]

I'm having problems burning disc's since I got my new motherboard Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS5,

I'm not sure what the problem is but the drive is acting really strange since I added it to the new board.

 

For example: It takes much longer for the drive to read discs than usual and when I press eject it opens but then instantly closes itself.

 

Here's the Imgburn report:

If the drivers report RAID and you say the bios is set to ATA then you can't have the drive on the right channel.

 

Do you have a 2nd controller on that board? Maybe by jmicron / marvell etc?

 

Your controllers will be in the scsi/raid branch rather than ide ata/atapi one.

 

I assume you've loaded the latest intel inf chipset and matrix drivers?

Thank You for the fast reply.

 

For Gigabyte Bios -> Standard CMOS Features it States: IDE Channel 4 Master : LITE-ON DVD-RW

 

I think that the 2nd controller is jmicron, I'm not sure how to check, there is a JMB36X IDE Setup running in System Configuration which is meant to be jmicron.

 

Under Storage Controllers:

 

ADEAQA4J IDE Controller <- I don't know what this is, States Device Type Standard Storage Controller

 

Gigabyte Gbb36X controller <-States manufacture jmicron

 

Intel® ICH8R/ICH9R/ICH10R/DO SATA RAID Controller

 

Microsoft iSCSI Initiator

 

I've installed the latest intel matrix storage controller drivers 8.xx

Ports 5 and 6 on the intel chipset would be the most likely to work of any. I believe some boards let you have RAID for the first 4 and ATA for 5 and 6.

 

The weird name controller is DAEMON Tools or Alcohol 120% etc.

 

jmicron drivers can be found here ftp://driver.jmicron.com.tw/jmb36x/Win2k_xp_Vista/

Thanks For the Help, the jmicron drivers did the trick I'm able to burn and read discs much faster now.
