Default Windows 98se cannot see DVD drive

I have a dual boot system consisting of win98se and windows xp. Presently I
am using an IDE switch box to use the system with that has a cd burner for
98 and then I use the dvd burner for xp. The reason I do this is because
when I boot the system with the dvd drive there isnt even a drive
recognized for it in the device manager. I had created a system from
scratch with 98 and it DOES recognize the dvd drive just fine. So my
problem is why doesnt it with the partition that I have already installed
on my system. Is there a system file missing or corrupted. I appreciate any
thoughts, ideas and responses.
