im sure the other guys will give a more detailed description. any how.. is the jumpers set right?.. on the back of the hard drive that you want as master. do you have the jumpers in the right order?
this image is just for reference to to show you what i mean by the jumpers in case you don't know what i mean. the master settings vary so you will need to look at the image on your hard drive
there should be a small pic on the hard drive showing you were to put the jumper for master and slave and so on..

You need to use the jumper setting specified by your hard drive manufacturer. These are usually displayed on the hard drive itself. If it is not, go the the manufacturer's web page and look for the information there.

Did your old hard drives show up in your bios setting? Try setting them up as master and slave again, then clear your bios settings. reboot and see if they show up in bios as master and slave. if they do you can change your boot up order to cd-rom first, then reinstall windows, follow the instruction carefully.

You will have to reinstall all windows updates which can take awhile, but you won't lose any of the data on your hard drive. You will also have to call in to get a new product key because your old one won't work, even though it is a legit product key(microsoft will give you a new product key)
