If you have multiple optical drives on IDE, then look at the rear of the out going unit and note the jumper setting (master/slave). Make replacement the same setting.
How'd you go?

aight man ill try it out seems like that makes sense.

EDIT: it shows a diagram saying master and slave but in my bios it recognizes em and doesnt show up on explorer still i switch the settings around in the bios to off but that did nothing.

eDIT: i guess it shows up in the disk manager and shows all exclamation marks and now that i switched my old dvd burner back it doesnt recognize that anymore and the settings on the bios r the same
