DVD Drives don't need drivers (well they're built in). It's going to be down to how you connected it (i.e. set it to slave/master/auto) compared to the other drives or a problem with the settings in BIOS. Difficult to say specifically, depends on your set up, what other drives and which are set to master/slave etc."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

when i went into the settings i set it to auto but its not finding it...
when i restart it says "secondary drives 0"
I think im stuck i checked all the connectors and they are all in. I just swapped the old with the new0 -
Look for CSM on the back of the drive, there is a jumper, move it to the same settnig as the original drive (probably c or s, if it is on the same cable as the hard disk)
Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0 -
Its sorted now thanks very much
