building pc help.

My parts are q6600, geforce 7800 gt oc, 680i lt mb, 4 gig of ddr2(2x2048), and an x2 750watt powersupply. When I connected my dvd drive to the motheroard with an eide cable my dvd drive gets no power, but if I unplug the eide cable then the dvd drive gets power, and also I tested it in another computer and it worked fine. Is there something wrong with the motherboard or is that dvd drive just not compatable?

The dvd drive is a sony crx320ae

Hm... Try a different IDE cable. It kind of sounds like a short, but that doesn't make sense.

Try a different drive on your mobo, see if that works.
