ok, i fell soooo retarded right now..... i went to check my mobo, and i left my cd drive unplugged from the mobo.... but now im looking, i dont know where to plug the cd drive to the mobo.... what do i do? where do i plug it in at, and what cable do i use? the only empty slot left is the floppy disk drive, and its like a 20 slop plug, but my cd drive is 24 like a hdd... but it has sata cable which is probably for a cd rom......... but im using an older cd drive and it doesnt use sata..
