OK, so computer A has good parts, except my fiance wanted to keep the HD and add it to his computer. So I took the HD from computer B (crappy parts) and put it in computer A. Computer A already has a CD-ROM and a CD-RW drive. However, neither of the drives show up in My Computer with the new HD in. When I boot, the first screen shows the HD recognized, but then says NONE for secondary master and secondary slave (I'm assuming that's referring to the optical drives). I go into the BIOS and everything except the HD is set to AUTO. It's all plugged in exactly how it was when HD A was still in computer A. How do I get the new HD to work with these drives? Or what do I change in the BIOS? I can switch them from AUTO to CD-ROM, but that doesn't really help as it's still not seeing the drives. I d/l the firmware and drivers, but those won't install b/c the drives aren't recognized.
If it matters, the drives are Asus CD-S520/A5 and Lite-on-it SOHR-5239S
Grrr, I really suck at hardware stuff! Not my area of expertise
