    Exclamation Cdrom And Dvd Rewriter Will Not Work

    Have Just Built A New Pc.

    I Have Checked Both Drives In My Second Pc And They Work . When I Try In My New Pc They Do Not Show Under Device Manager Or On The Bios.

    They Are Powered As The Door Opens On Both.

    I Have Checked The Cables And Tried The Jumpers In Different Combinations But Still No Luck.

    Please Help

    Both Are Not Showing In The Bios. Sorry New To This Game What Do You Mean By Do The Post.
    Both Drives Are Compatable With The Motherboard And Are Set As You Said. I Have Tried Every Config Going With The Jumper Terminals On The Back.

    Any More Ideas.
