Thanks guys. I'll check the pins to see if any are bent or missing, but there is no need to try the drive in another PC because this makes PC #3 where the behavior and error message are identical. Also, keep in mind that I have no DVD burner, this is a DVD ROM only, and it is not reading anything - CDs, DVDs, CDRWs. No spin-up whatsoever. The drive is getting power though (the tray opens and closes). Also, I can't find the drivers for this thing on the original factory discs that contain Win98.

I'm thinking this will be the next thing to try after checking the pins, but I have never flashed an old drive before, so i may need some guidance here.
I'm checking
PioneerDVD Firmware right now and I see 113, 113S, and 113SZ, but no 113R.
