I recently installed a new motherboard. Now my cd-rom drive is not being recognized as being connected. Because of this I am unable to load the drivers that came with my motherboard, myabe this is the problem itself. Everything is connected just fine. I have never upgraded a motherboard without reinstalling windows. ANyone have any advice?

You are right Vera, sorry I forgot about the pop-up. The fix for me was under CDROM ERRORS, then the eleventh one from the top, the one about cdrom not being recognized after windows 98 install. Even though I already had windows installed this was my fix. Cheers!
