Comment:

I purchased a LG DVD writer (16x Super DVD/CD Rewriter) and a IDE to USB cable (R Driver II) to use for a IBM laptop. The IDE to USB cable comes with a power adapter and a IDE to USB cable.
However when connected, the writer can't open when pressed and the the laptop does not show the writer icon. The device manager shows a message "This device cannot start (Code 10)".
I had tested the cable and the cable is not a problem. The cable is designd to work for DVD/CD 5.25, 3.5 and 2.5 harddrives.
I am using window xp and sp2.
Regards.

Check the jumper on the drive. Is it set to master/slave? It may not make a difference but then again it might.
I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another so please feel free to ingore this.

Try changing the jumpers but the device manager show
"This device cannot start (Code 10)". But it show code 22 than change to code 10.
