Hello Sue:

Ensure that you have set your BIOS to recognize this deviceb y setting it to
"auto" detect. Next make sure your jumpers are set correctly. The device on the
end of the ribbon is ALWAYS the Master device; the one on the center connections
should always be the "Slave" device. If you have them switched around, either
the jumpers, or where they are on the ribbon,,,,,this could cause this type of
error message.

Also try running a device of the hard drive and leaving only one CD ROM device
on a SINGLE ribbon by itself.
