If the green light is blinking for a while but windows still says there isn't any disc in the drive, you might check if you have the right sort of IDE cable for it. If the IDE cable model is right, try running it without any jumpers and the CD drive at the end (NOT THE MIDDLE) of the IDE cable.	antonia1 (7850)
