Greetings,

Recently my motherboard died and i just finished replacing it. Everything works fine except the DVD rom now.

I have check this ROM on another computer and works fine. ALSO note that when I installed the physical hardware it poped up SAYING that it DETECTED several primary and secondary IDE drive (the DVD rom is the only IDE item on this computer)

BiOS seems to recognize the rom but when you go into the 'my computer' the rom is not listed. Also on my Device Manager there are several Primary and Secondary IDE Channel's listed and a few of each are yellow ! icon.

Any assistance would be appreciated.If this is XP have you tried CD-DVD Fix ?--->TryHere
