Have you looked for a firmware upgrade? Maybe there is a newer firmware.
Normally you'll find them on the website of your drive's manufactor.

Its probably a drive failure because I connected it using the 80 pin
cable as suggested by some of you in the thread. I didn't see any
difference in the cable I purchased and I had previously :(
Still CD-R and DVD+-R do read, but CD-RW and DVD+-RW won't.
I think I'll get a new drive. Any more
I forgot to tell you all something which I observed. Since the DVD drive
was not working with the 40 pin cable, I removed it and connected my old
CD-RW drive. That used to read CD-RW too. But this DVD drive won't read.
So I feel this is a drive error. What do you say ?

Maybe because the bios sets some conservative settings and the lates

Okay _some_ success after converting it to SATA using IDE<=>SATA chip.
It now reads DVD's inside the OS too.
But it doesn't read either CDs or DVDs from the RW group. This is drive
failure or I seriously need an 80 pin cable ?
The SATA connector looks like the one with 40 pins; But I'm unsure.

Also in my drive the pin which is blocked in the 80 pin connector is

It has a different impedance, and that can make all the
difference at high clock speeds.
