OK.
Turn off 32bit disk access, in your 386Enhanced section, in Control 
Panel. This driver will stop your CD working, if it is on the same 
cable with your HD, as you describe.
This is a known problem, and the only fix I know of is to run the CD 
off a secondary IDE controller. This also fixes the other problem with 
running the drive as a secondary to the HD, which is that you cannot 
play CD music etc., while doing any sort of HD access.

Hope this helps
