antec nsk4480b case with psu that came with it
intel celeron 1.8ghz processor
asus p4s8x-x motherboard
1gb ddr ram + 512mb ddr ram
MSI MX4000-T128 video card
40gb western digital HD
sony optiarc dvd-rw drive
etc...
the only thing that has physically been upgraded since my last system is i did a case swap into the new case and added the dvd burner drive. it's this drive:
http://www.newegg.co...N82E16827118012
everything works perfect so far except the dvd burner...when i boot up my computer it goes to the main asus screen, then a screen after that recognizes the dvd burner drive as the primary drive. then windows will boot up and the drive isn't listed in my computer, or in my device manager at all. the drive itself will open up and the led light works, but isn't recognized. tried to put a game cd and a music cd both of which it did not read.
i got the drive from newegg and it didn't come in a box or come with a cd or instructions so that was kinda odd to me. the only difference in that drive and my old one is my old drive was a stock cd-rw from an emachines computer and used IDE cabling...the new one uses SATA, which i've never used before. Help?
