Some more info would help.
 
Is the DVD drive IDE or SATA?
Is your HDD IDE or SATA?
 
Maybe it's IDE and your jumpers are set incorrectly...

More Information

Are the master/slave jumpers install correctly? If they are on the same cable, the HD should be jumpered for Master and the DVD for Slave.
 
If the DVD drive is on a cable by itself, it should be jumpered as Master. DVD drives usually come jumpered as Master out of the box.
