Hi, I have Lite internal DVD drive, which I tried to use externally connecting to laptop through IDE-USB cable and separate power cable. Drive works (spins, opens and closes tray) only without connection to laptop with Vista 32x. I checked on XP - it works and was recognized by PC. On Vista DVD drive freezes immediately after putting cable in laptop USB port. No recognition from Vista. Should I change the cable for newer version or what? Any advise please.
