Solve : Installing A DVD-RW Drive?

Answer»

I'm having trouble getting a DVD-RW drive installed on my PC. I bought two new SATA hard drives and a DVD-RW LAST night. I installed the first hard-drive and DVD drive last night and installed Windows. No issues at all. This morning, I installed the second hard-drive, which works fine also.

At some point, I lost the functionality of the DVD drive after getting both HDDS working. I tried the DVD drive with every jumper setting on both positions on the cable. Nothing. ANYONE have a clue what I can check next?

Thanks in advance for any help you might have to offer!!im not sure about this, but if you disconnect one of your hard drives the DVD MAY start to work again. it could have something to do with the PSU inside your system not being able supply all of your hard drives and the DVD-RW drive.
what is the wattage on you PSU?Is this an IDE DVD drive ? ?
If so it should be jumpered MASTER and hooked to the end connector of the ribbon cable...
