So a few months back, I took my DVD burner out of this computer to put it in my other one. It works fine in my other computer, and used to work fine in this one. Now, it keeps saying "Secondary drive not found. press f1 to continue or f2 to go to setup"

so i push f2, and on the secondary drive it says "unknown device" or something like that. when i push f1, the computer loads normally, and in the "my computer" it says that there's a DVD drive. It opens up, and I can hear the DVD spinning when I put it in, but nothing happens. Any advice?

You may have the drive jumpers set incorrectly.
