Assuming your thread title is correct? This is a Windows 7 forum, but I am sure someone may help.

Please explain your setup in more detail, for example, are you using Sata or ide connections and how the jumpers are set.

Do you need both optical drives? DVD may be enough.

Did it work before and suddenly stop working?

Are you talking about an Virtual PC installation of XP under W7?
