I recently added a second hard drive and that is present and working but now

I have no access or acknowledgement in either windows explorer or device

manager, they just disapeared?

Re: CD Drives Missing

Crack the case again and see if you managed to pull the IDE connector loose.

Also check the power leads, and if your CD/DVD drives are paired with the

hard disks on an IDE cable, ensure that the Master/Slave/Cable Select

jumpers are in the correct positions.
