Would that be the suggested thing to do for a motherboard that refuses to

The Bios or the operating system you are running on it?


I know that IDE HDD detection in the Bios doesn't detect CD drives, what
does the OS detect?


Linux doesn't detect the DVD/CDRW; I suspect that's because I haven't got the appropriate driver. The BIOS doesn't either, and I've tried it with two of the most likely options.

I don't know what interface these modern devices use, is it not an IDE device?
