Need more details about your system setup. In the meantime, are you sure the cables are connected properly to the hard drives and CD-ROM drive? Are your BIOS settings correct so that your drive will be detected on whatever IDE channel it's installed on? Is your motherboard fairly new (made after I think 1995)? I don't think older Pentium boards support booting from CD-ROM..
