For some reason (don't ask me) the IDE interface on your SB card isn't
being recognised. If you have one IDE HD, plug the CR581 into the IDE
adapter instead. (With any luck, either the cable that came with the CD
or with the computer will have three plugs, for the adapter and two
drives.) If you can it might be easier to put the CD on the secondary
IDE port. The master/slave setting on the CD may need alteration (actually,
you might want to try that while it's still connected to the sound card;
it's not as likely to work but it's worth a try).

If the CD works on your motherboard's (or adapter card's, if you're
using one) IDE port, you're OK.

The soundcard not being recognised is (I think) because you need a newer
version of the drivers which are written for the PnP cards. If you can
get these drivers, you should be able to use the CD connected to the
soundcard again.
