cd-rom and dvd-rom not being recognized by my PC!

You might check to see if you accidently disconnected the ribbon cable going to the MB from the CD ROM drives when you took the H.D. out. ;)

EDIT: I just noticed also that your A: Floppy drive isn't showing either, so just check all those cables and if they are good we can go from there.

lol yea I have unplugged and re-plugged the cables going from the two drives to the motherboard. Also, i don't have a floppy drive so thats one less thing to worry about :D

Did you change anything in BIOS while trying to get the other internal hard drive to function?  Could be you disabled autodetect on the other drives in bios..

Good suggestion Cak46....

Also you could try going to control panel/Administrative tools/Computer Management/Disk Management and see if Two drives are trying to occupy the same drive letter, if so you can right click on them and change the letter to an unused letter.
