What have you done to it that it wont recognise a CD drive and thinks your HDD is a floppy??

Is the HDD SARTA or IDE?

Also have yoyu checked in the BIOS to see if it sees the drive in there, checked the jumpers on both the CD drive and the HDD? If you have then I aint a clue

Did you open up the panel to add more hardware (like the second HDD?) If so I would remove it, then I would make sure that the jumpers for the CD and the C drive were set to master and make sure that there in the primary IDE connections (not that I think it makes much difference.

If that dosent woek I would probably reinstall windows or the motherboard drivers as somethings gone very wrong somewhere.
