Stupid question of the day, when I goto install the DVD drive which will be replacing my CD Rom, do I just plug it into the power and IDE and sound card cables, make it the master and then turn on to configure.
I also have a CD burner which I installed last week so do I set the jumper (on the DVD to master the jumper on the CD burner is set to slave)to master?
