Lots of READ_BIG errors on my new cd drive



I recently got a new Dell Latitude D620, and I've been having a lot of
problems with the CD drive that comes with it:

acd0: DVDR <PHILIPS DVD+/-RW SDVD8820/AD15> at ata1-master UDMA33

I get a lot of errors that look like this:

acd0: FAILURE - READ_BIG HARDWARE ERROR asc=0x3e ascq=0x02

On CDs and DVDs that I've recorded on other drives, that I've recorded
on this drive, and commercial ones.

Any ideas on where to start looking?

Doug

    ... What I've seen is that the drives seem to need to be initially ' enabled/activated' in Windows before they will play DVDs in OS/2. ... What I've thought might be going is that the drive can only be 'enabled/activated' in Windows for DVD playing since there is AFAIK no licensed DVD software player for an add-on ATAPI/IDE DVD drive other than in Windows, The drive perhaps then assumes that if someone is trying to use the drive to play DVDs without Windows, they are using some sort of unlicensed player or something and the drive refuses to read them. ...
