The Pioneer's got CD writing capabilities and all that jazz, he kept the Samsung in there partly because it's got nowhere else to go, and partly because it helps in duplicating a CD, just makes things easier.
I'll do some switching with the cables and see if I can narrow it down to a faulty cable perhaps, and I've uninstalled them in Windows and reinstalled them again but no luck. I've also tried them with different master/slave settings, new IDE ribbons, putting them in different IDE slots on the motherboard, etc. The next step is a format and reinstall of Windows I think, it never hurts to have a nice clean install for this sort of thing.
Cheers for the help, I'll try swapping the hard disks too!
