    making progress on CDROM but...

    I have the cdrom installed correctly on ide2. The cable has a tab and can only insert into CD and Motherboard one way. I took the CD from another PC so i know it works. I installed the drivers. Now when i boot i get the cdrom driver copyright message and after a few seconds the message - cannot find drive, installation aborted - and then it boots to the C prompt. I've tried every jumper setting possible including no jumpers at all. Can't figure it out? Is there something in the BIOS i need to do?
    HELP Please!!

    Yes, it can be your BIOS. You must enter BIOS setup and enable secondary IDE controller. If your BIOS has two different settings for IDE1 and IDE2, then enable IDE2. If it has combined setting Disable/Primary/Secondary/Both, then select Both.
