I built a PC using the Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3 motherboard, and installed two Samsung SH-D163C SATA ODDs.
I installed all the motherboard drivers, including the Marvell console. The OS is Win 7 64 bit (although I had the same problem with Win 7 32 bit too).
Nero7 Smart Start came with the ODDs so I also installed that.
I can read from the drives but can't write to either of them (which is what makes me think it's a mobo/driver problem, not a hardware problem with the ODDs).
I ran Samsung's WinInquire tool and checked that the latest firmware is installed (SB02).
When I run Nero, neither ODD is shown in the list of available writers - I just get the 'emulator' option.
Has anyone else come across this problem and can tell me what I need to do/install to get them to write?
Thanks
