 You must definitely use the CD-ROM driver, otherwise it's no drive, 
just an ATAPI device (so it wouldn't have a letter assigned 
otherwise, for example).

 I can't help with Marco's unit. Regarding some extra code - just try 
the test program delivered with my unit and you'll see whether it 
works for you, or not, at once. ;-)
