todesto Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Hi, all I don't know when it started doing this, but when I put blank DVD to burn some files but I noticed it didn't pop up anything for blank disk. Then I found out that my system is not recognizing my two DVD drives. It used work fine, but I have no idea when it started doing this. When I boot in Leopard (I am using dual boot), it finds my drives fine. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Well you need a driver that only allows 3GB ram and allows dvd read only i think maybe thats just the apple nforce one, but also have you tried turning ahci on in the bios?

I am not using SATA DVD drives, both are SONY DVD-RW. It is IDE and it works fine in Leopard (10.5) and it worked with 10.6 also, but it doesn't get detected. I did not change anything in BIOS. I reinstalled jmicron, ATA related kexts, but no success....
