Hi,

my PC came with a Sony CDRW/DVD ROM. I have now installed an LG DVD burner.
When both are connected, windows will not recognise either. However Windows
will recognise either device if only one is connected. How do I get Windows
to recognise both devices so I can copy CD's & DVDs directly without going
via the hard drive?
 
You need to set the LG DVD burner's jumper to "slave".
