Ever since I added a Seagate 500gb sata II hdd my 2 IDE DVD-RW's haven't shown up in the bios nor Windows. I already had a sata wd raptor as my boot drive on sata 1 on the mobo, so it's weird that after adding a 2nd sata drive, the 2 IDE's DVD drives would go invisible.
My system:
e6600
p5b deluxe
2 x corsair 1024 ddr2
evga 8800 gts 512
1 x sata raptor as boot drive on mobo sata 1
1 x sata seagate on mobo sata 2
2 x dvd-rw on motherboard's IDE1 on 1 cable
2 x wd ide drives on pci ide controller
At first I didn't really have a problem with it, now I also bought a Logitech G5 mouse, and I can't get that to work in any kind of way. That's a problem aside, anyway, because of that I want to reinstall my computer, but ofcourse, it won't detect my dvd-drives. So I'm kind of stuck at the moment and hope that anyone might have some tips on getting the IDE drives to be seen again. Alternatively, would there be a good chance if I buy a sata dvd drive that that WOULD get detected?
Thanx
