hi, there seems to be a problem with my cd and dvd drives. i can put cds into them and the light lights up, but it doesnt show up on my computer. my computer has been through some blackouts lately. i tried replacing the cable, but no progress, i dont know if its my cd drive or the mother board. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Try moving one of the drives to the other channel.

Do yourself a favor BACKUP!
