Check the IDE cables are correctly inserted into the Optical drive and the Motherboard.

Ur probably right. I may have to take to computer shop next week to check IDE because I never open the laptop case before yet. I used to be computer professinal, but only to Desktop, not laptop. Thanks I'll ask David about it.

Okay. Which mean what? Or what should I do...
By the way. How can I check the IDE Cable inside the laptop? I have Compaq Presario V2000 laptop. Thanks, Cody J.
