I'm building a new machine for a friend...
Intel D850MVSE motherboard, P4 2.2Ghz, 512mb, W2K Server SP2
Plextor "CD-R PX-W2410A" IDE Burner, Maxtor 80gb 7200rpm drives
I installed MJ 8.0.315 directly and bought him a license as a "system warming" present.
BUT...I can't uncheck the "generic" box for the burner. I know it's on the Goldenhawk list because I checked before I bought the drive. It's set to DAE enabled and Ultra DMA mode and the MJ install installed ASPI 4.71 and an aspichck confirms it's OK. I can rip at full speeds and except for the 2 second gap and missing CD-TEXT, I can burn OK.
So, after trying various re-installs to no avail, I decided to put the Plextor drive in my own machine which is also running 8.0.315, and... MJ recognizes the drive as supported and I can check and uncheck the "generic" and "gap" boxes.
Now I'm scratching me head so I put my Sony "CD-RW CRX175A" (which works perfectly in my machine) into the new machine and... the "generic" box is permanently checked. Sigh.
I've tried backing the ASPI layer to 4.70 since that's what my machine has: no luck.
I've tried wiping MJ and installing v7.latest: the "generic" box CAN be changed, but upgrading to 8.0.293 sends me back to permanent generic. (I went from 7 to 8.0.293 because that's what I did on my machine). Further upgrade to 8.0.315 didn't help.
I've tried reinstalling the IDE drivers, checking the cables, moving from primary master to secondary master (the hard drives are on their own ATA/133 controller), updating the motherboard BIOS, etc, etc. No help.
The OS was installed last night on a fresh hard drive and MJ was the only non OS software to be installed.
I'm stumped. Anyone have any other ideas?
