Is the hard drive and cdrom IDE? If so, are they sharing the same ide cable?
If yes, could be a couple of things. Start with the easiest solutions:
1) Make sure the cd rom is set as slave.
2) Make sure the hard drive is set as master and not as a stand alone drive
3) Make sure the ide cable is in correctly
4) Try using a different power plug for the cdrom.
5) Make sure the cmos recognizes both the cdrom and hard drive.
