Does the DVD decoder on the lombard motherboard work under X ?
If you mean the built-in decoder on the 400 MHz models, absolutely. (I
cannot comment on the 300 MHz models).

So you can buy one of these mechanisms and swap it with the old one
on the housing ?
Absolutely.
Just make sure it is a 12.7mm model and that it has a universal 50 pin
miniature connector, as all of them now do.
The Lombard/Pismo bezel will not fit any current drive, so there will be

The built-in decoder works well.
DVD writing is reliable at 2X, usually reliably at 4X, and fails at
greater than 4X, and that failure is on account of the poor grounding
provided within the media bay itself. These same drives will not fail at
any speed if installed as directed, using an

Why does a DVD DECODER impact writing DVDs ?
Obviously, I volunteered more informantion than you asked for.
My use of my Lombard and Pismos is authoring (writing) and verifying

Hey guys
Thank you for the replies. This problem started after I dissembled the
unit to paint the case, after putting it back together apparently a
piece of the foil from the bottom case became curled under the sound

asked you about a misplaced part, shield or other obstruction.
