    hi try unistalling both drives using device manager -

    click -
    control panel
    system
    hardware
    device manager

    then find dvd/cd rom drives

    & right click on your drive/s
    then select uninstall

    then restart your pc & windows should find the new hardware (i.e drives)

    make sure that one of the drives is set as a slave drive (refer to instructions that came with burner)

    if that fails to resolve the problem then disconnect & uninstall the old drive & see if windows will find your new drive if it does just use the new one for the moment so as you can at least burn the dvd you need to.

    post back if you have any problems i hope this helps
