I just purchased a new LiteOn 16x DVD drive and cdrw. i was able to install the cdrw with little problems but when i put a disc in the DVD (including the disc that came with it) it locks up my computer and i have to restart. Also if i restart with a cd in the DVD the computer locks up when it gets to the win xp boot screen. My dvd is my master and my cdrw is my seconday both which are hooked up to the 2 on my ATA100 card. I have tried swiching the jumpers in the back to switch them but no difference there either. Any information you might have as to why this is happing or what i can do to fix it whould be appreciated :) thanks
