I installed a network card and now my computer won't recognize my two CD-ROM drives. Things worked for awhile and then I got a message that I unplugged them improperly. I was just sitting there doing nothing when that happened. I checked all the connections and everything is connected. The drives are not showing up on My Computer and they won't play an audio CD when I stick one in. Any Thoughts?

So both are not recognized right now? What happens if you remove the network card?

Friend,

enter setup and try to detect your ide's from there . Otherwise restore your last good known configuration may solve the problem. Check whether all power connectors are set properly.

hope will clear your problem
