Use 'Device Manager', go to the IDE controller where the drives are installed (usually the secondary) and uninstall the controller, then reboot.

did you add or remove anything hardware wise.

Are you using a Virtual Drive As these can cause confliks.

Other dvd software in conjunction with one another also can cause conflicks heres some i have run across.

Dvd Decrypter
Dvd Shrink

Some Nero Suits 7.1 and higher
Alcohol 120%

in some rare cases mainly on OEM Computer The Intel Application Accelerator has Caused Ide Arrays To Temp.Die

The cure is uninstalling all software that can burn a disk (Nero, IMGBurn, AnyDVD etc), cleaning the registry, then re-installing the burning programs.

Another link (it's on an HP site, but it's the same problem) with some illustrations - step 3 applies.
