There is nothing else you need to do. It should have worked.
Try to see if the drive is visible from the bios when you start the system. It might be that there is a conflict with some other device that is sharing the same IDE cable. Try changing it from master to slave or the opposite! (there is a little jumper on the back of the drive for doing this).

Ehm..
I found a free download of Nero here http://bitly.com/VMdXmE
Nero supports burning audio, video and data to CD, DVD or Blu-ray Disc.
Cheers ;)

Install Nero burning software. Reboot your PC. Open Nero, see if it recognises your DVD/CD burner. It should.

the computing device spec. probable gained't inform you about that (nor might want to it inform you the wattage on your PSU!) you ought to by no ability order something till you're sensible it is going to in high quality condition and artwork. you would possibly want to envision to work out once you've SATA or IDE...and once you've an better SATA port i'd get my CD/DVD rigidity with that connection as SATA is two times as quick as IDE.

I can give you a link that deals with hard drive problems.
Some RAM/hard drive problems can be easily fixed yourself by using easily available tools. I found the info at http://fixit.in useful. Try this site, if you can get what is required.
