DVD Problems

Having problems with my dvd drives just now. I have 2, a DVD-ROM and a DVD-RW. The DVD-ROM doesn't get detected by the motherboard so that is a far as that goes. The other drive only sometimes gets detected and when I try to burn a DVD with it I get this error from Nero:



I have checked the cabling for both drives, they are both fine...anyone any ideas with this?

Tom has a little shameless behaviour in the past
I'd guess try new data cables, try a different port (Like if they're on IDE1 try IDE2), try one at once.

Make sure jumpers are set correctly, thant kinda thing.
