You should try to use it master or slave or together on the IDE
primary with the hdd or without a hdd on the secondary and so on.

I've had this, too, and then I rearranged the stuff and now it works.

It could also be a BIOS problem.
I remember something that my CD-ROM have not been recognized when
letting the BIOS detect the CD in the harddrive-section.

Or when it was a slave on a IDE-Interface without a master.

And so on.
