Can someone help me? I just installed my CD RW drive in my other
computer. It used to be installed in my dell computer (i put it there)
and we had to take the original cd drive out because they both wouldnt
fit. Now that i've moved it to this computer it doesnt work right. I
have it set as the slave because Im also using my other drive. It reads
and boots just fine and I can copy files from it but its not being
recognized as a cd rw drive... when I put it in my other computer the
thing came up to configure new hard ware but it didnt this time.... any
sugestions? im getting desperate.

I am a little confused on the details.
I understand that your CD authoring software does not recognize the CDRW.
What Operating System are you using?  I am assuming Windows 9x.
What model is the CDRW?  This information can be obtained from
Start>Settings>Control Panel>System.
Select the tab labled Device Manager, then select the section labled CDROM.
Also the information under Hard Disk Controllers can be useful as well.
Which CD authoring software are you using?
What is the make and model of your motherboard?
What other peripheral devices and drives do you have installed?
What other software do you have installed?  A conflict can result if you
have more than one CD authoring software on your system as well.
