Why wont my PC accept a new hardware?

by teggi . Updated 25 years, 9 months ago

I have a Compaq Pressario 5676 With following hardware installed: HD, CD/DVD-player, Zip-drive and floppy (A:\). I’ve tried to install a new hardware (CD-creator), but my computer wont find it. I’ve tried to “install a new hardware”, switch the plugd behind from “slave”,”cable select”,”master” (when wired with CD-player), and all the combinations that you can think of. Also tried to wire it alone to the card. I’ve tried Compaq support, but they don’t even know what BIOS are…. Is there anybodyout there that can help me to get my new hardware to work? It’s a HP-CD-recorder.
