Plextor 12 10 32A

[the_avatar]

I just got a new plex 121032A, with my new comp after upgrading from a ricoh 4232, i had to put it a master on the same ide channel as my pioneer dvd player.
i am unabvle to make a backup of any of my new cds, music just comes out as white noise, psx comes out as a unreadable disc, all at both 8x and 12x, i am using cdrwin3.8c and have only the plextools installed besides that.
could it be that its on the same ide channel as my dvd player, i have a piii 800 256mb ram? any other info (eg recommended speeds etc) is greatly appreciated?
