I have tried the 6 possible disk drive configurations and each time I get the same problem.

I tried:

1. Master - End of Cable
2. Master - Middle of Cable
3. Slave - End of Cable
4. Slave - Middle of Cable
5. Cable Select - End of Cable
6. Cable Select - Middle of Cable

Everytime I put the disk in, the drive reads the disk and it CONTINUES to read and read and read, but nothing happens. When I try to right click on the drive icon in My Computer the waiting symbol that replaces the cursor continues until I open the drive.
I'm not sure what else I can do, and I don't want to have to get a new motherboard to find out that it wasn't the factor causing the problem.
