Did you also install the mother board drivers?If not you may not have
access to the correct IDE controller thus neither your CD drives.
If you need more info on what is in the system download,install and
use Aida32,

and you can research the mother board/chip set drivers you most likely
need unless you have a mother board CD available with the system.
