I have just fitted a DVD writer BenQ DW 1620 to my computer, which has a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard with a Soundblaster Audigy 4 sound card fitted and 2 sounblaster stereo speakers.

Is there any need to connect the audio cable from the DVD writer to the sound card or anywhere else? I have not fitted it as the Sony CD ROM, already in my system, does not appear to have an audio connection.

The sound seems fine if I play an audio CD.

Also do I need to link a cable, which comes from my VU unit on the front panel to a connection on the back plate, to my sound card. This back plate connection was linked by a short cable to my sound card back plate when the computer was delivered, but I have disconnected it and cannot remember which terminal on the sound card back plate it was connected to.

Any advice would be much appreciated.
