A couple of weeks ago I posted an issue that I had trying to use my external CD drive with the B2 for the first time. After connecting the CD drive to USB port C and powering up the B2, the CD drive did not power up with it (LED didn't light up). When I selected "USB Functions" on the menu, it read "No USB device", and instructed me to plug one in. I also tried using port A, but no difference.
After some deliberation, I decided to get a "name" CD drive, and went for the LG GP57EB40 unit, which I saw recommended by Brennan somewhere.
It arrived this morning, and I couldn't wait to try it out. I connected the CD drive to port C, powered up the B2, and good news......the LED on the CD drive lit up, and the draw popped open ready for use. This is more like it I thought. I went to "USB Functions" and guess what.......it said "No USB Device". once again, I also tried using Port A, and still nothing.
I'm no further along with solving this issue. Until I resolve this issue, I cannot rip a small number of CDs to the B2, as the B2 won't accept them.
Can anyone suggest what the problem is, and how I can resolve it?
