I just got a couple of these burners and apparently, they don't like games. When I try and play CnC Kane's Wrath on the Samsung, Kane's Wrath gives me an emulation conflict error. When I play it on my IDE Sony Optiarc, it boots right into the game. I have 2 of these Samsungs and they both do the same thing. I am thinking that games just don't like the drive or that it has something to do with the Samsung being a SATA drive coupled with my raid hard drives. On a side note, Universe at War does the same thing, as well as Assasin's Creed, but I "fixed" Assasin's Creed before I thought to try it on my other drive. So, what do you guys think?
 
A google search shows that it's a SecureROM problem. It seems like SecureROM has problems with certain DVD drives. Apparently the SH-S203N is one of them.

However this problem also occurs if you have any emulation software (Alcohol 120%, Daemon tools, etc) or DVD ripping software installed on your rig.
 
I have DVD stuff, but if that was the problem, it wouldn't let me play on my alternate DVD burner. Looks like the Samsungs are getting smashed with a hammer.

Anyone know of some good quiet SATA DVD burners?
 
Is there a site or anything that lists compatible drives with securerom?
