Computer will not boot after DVD drive instal???

[yosh2000]

just picked up this computer ( http://www.cisnetpc.com/spec/spec_ci3001cc108.html ) for my parents last night. it came w/ a DVD-RW drive and a 120gb HD. but it has space for a 2nd DVD drive and 2nd HD.

right now i am adding in their old HD for storage and a 2nd DVD drive into it. the HD worked fine, but i am having trouble w/ the DVD drive. the computer came w/ all the cables ready to go, i plugged them in, switched all the jumpers to "CS" and thought i was good (this is exactly what i did for the HD and it worked perfect!). well, the computer will not boot up now w/ the DVD drive plugged in.

out of the box it would say:

"boot from DVD/CD :"
then
"press f10 to start recovery" then would count down from 10 and then boot

now that i put the 2nd DVD drive in, it says "boot from DVD/CD :" twice, but will not go any further. this leads me to believe that the 2nd DVD drive is preventing it from booting up.

on this black screen it also says:

--------------------------------------------------------
pri. matster disk : lba, ata 100, 120gb parallel port(s): 378
pri. slave disk : lrg, ata 100, 100 gb ddr sdram at dimm: 1
sec. master disk : dvd-rw,ata 33
sec. slave disk : dvd,ata 33
--------------------------------------------------------

how do i fix this?? i'm not a computer pro by any means, i just know how to hook up cable!!

any help would be really appreciated, thanks!

Try setting the DVD drive at the end of the cable Master and the one in the middle Slave.

thanks for the reply. i tried that also late last night, but when i did that, the dvd drives did not show up at all under "my computer". i tried playing a cd and dvd, but it would not be recognized, basically nothing would happen.

i know your the master, any other suggestions??!!

Make sure the cable isn't reversed - with the master end in the motherboard.
