Eide connected burner question

[NightStalker]

Its a port on your computers mother board that the ribbon cable from a cd-rom,cdrw and hd connects to. Trace the ribbon cable from the back of your CD-ROM, to the ide connection on the board, Do not mess with the HD, next to where it plugs in you should see a extra port,(if you have one) if not check the cd-rom's cable there should be a connector in the middle, use it to plug into the back of the cdrw. set the cd-rom as the master and the cdrw as the slave, you do not want to connect the cdrw to the same ide port with the HD.
