X60 and X6 ultraBase DVD Drive not recognized UPDATE!

[Joe_Stem]

Well I finally got the USB case for the CD\DVD drives..... Put the original drive in and windows found the drive right away however it wont read any type of DVD.... Reads Cd's just fine.... The New drive Fails when windows detects it... in other words it see the drive and tries to install it but it fails every time..... is there any way to make the original drive read DVD's... even swapping parts from one drive to the other...

Just bought a third DVD/CDrw drive with the same problem. WILL NOT READ DVD of any type store bought or otherwise... This is driving my customer nuts and making me look bad some one help me please.... before i fix it with a BFH (Big F'ing HAMMER) IS this an OS problem or what.... I put the drive in the usb case and hook it up to thinkpad and it installs fine but i put a dvd in and it says no disc in drive... i tried it on my desktop with same issue. Might try on my linux system next to see if that is the prob... but I am running out of ideas.

JUST TRIED ON LINUX BackTrack 4 but still no luck.... PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
