so i finnaly connected dension, i had to pull cables from HU coz i didn't have cables prepared for CDC..

and now nothing happens.. its becouse i didn't have CDC and my software for CDC is not activated?
Yes, it's very much possible.
You can confirm that, put an audio CD in the front CD player, and check if you can see CD CD1 CD2 ... CD6.
If you see only CD, you have to enable the CDC port.
If you see also CD1, CD2 .. CD6, but they are greyed out, then there's something wrong with your Gateway installation.
