Default cd-rom and floppy not accessible anymore

Hi,

I posted this in the setup group but it seems this is
where i should post.

Here's the story:

I bought a homemade athlon 1.8 ghz computer that came with
an adaptec hard drive controller with a maxtor 120gb hard
drive with windows 2000 professional. I attached a 15gb
hard drive from my old sony vaio computer that has win98
on it. I made the win98 hd a slave to the win2k drive and
everything worked fine.

I got a trios device so i can boot up my win98 drive
separately, as I could not access certain programs on
there. Now, i my cd-rom and dvd drives do not show up
under "my computer." also, when I click on the "a" floppy
drive, I get an error message saying it's inaccessible.

any ideas?

thanks in advance,

sincerely,

Dale shin
