Solve : Problems adding IDE Hard Drive?

Answer»

Hi
I have a "INTEL DG31PR" Mobo with one SATA hard drive conected.
Now I want to add a "wd205AA" ATA/IDE Hard Drive, because that my Mobo has only one IDE slot i had to connect the Cd drive and new hard drive on one cable but i dont know how.
If i connect the HDD in the middle and cd at the end or reverse, both don't show up. but both work separately.
PLEASE HELP?!!
