Ok heres the painfully annoying deal. I am running a K8n pro nforce 3 board from gigabyte with the f12 bios. I have my CD-RW and my DVD Rom both on IDE 1 set to CS on the jumpers. (I already tried switching between master and slave for both of them). Both are detected by my bios on start up but my dvdrom never is detected in windows xp pro sp1. It is extremely annoying. I've tried putting it on ide 2 and 3, tried the other drive on 2 etc and the cd rw was always detected as a master or slave depending on the jumper setting. My dvd rom was never detected by windows....Any advice?

Drives are Liteon 52x24x52 and DVD is a Sony 1621

PLEASE Help I've spent days on this problem.

Worst part is I installed windows on the DVD Rom :bang head

I would try downloading the latest nforce drivers from the nvidia website, I had the same problem and that fixed it for me...
