[qanda]This thread is about the Pioneer - DVD RW - internal - 5.25" - IDE. Click here to see full specs[/qanda]I have recently installed a new Pioneer DVD-191LS which is having a problem. It will burn both CDs and DVDs, that then work on other players, and it will read DVDs that contain plain old files,The test was on word files. But it will not play back either a music CD or a Video DVD.
It is a IDE device. The DVD is the Master and the CD is the slave. The Hard Drive is on its own IDE Controller.
This is the second drive I tried, a TSST Corp Sh-5 222a, and it show the same problem.
The Pioneer Tec said that the cable was not the problem based on these facts and his thought was I had a bad drive. He did not know this was my second try.
I am running XP SP3 and I am burning with Nero 6.
Anything else you would like to know I will do my best to provide.
Thanks for your help
