I don't have one of these but you could try to change the jumper on the drive from slave to master, also I don't think it would be able to burn dvds if its usb 1.1. but its probably 2.0 anyways.

yes change jumpers still no joy :(

well before i dug it out i had the lg dvdrw init this is months ago but even then it would only burn dvds not cd's like i said both drives work perfectly in my tower
it is usb 1.0 at the moment
get my usb 2.0 dongle thingy me bob tomorrow with my new case :D

I'm pretty sure you need usb 2.0 to be able to use an external dvdrw so it should work when you get your case tomorrow.
