Pioneer DVD-114 not being recognized by mother board

I recently installed a new Intel 915GAV mobo with a new Pentium 4
processor. My problem is when I hook up the IDE cable to my Pioneer
DVD-114 drive, nothing works. I mean nothing, the computer will boot
off a floppy dos bot disk, but the bios doesn't show any other drives.
So even though the IDE is hooked up so that my hard drive is the master
and the DVD drive is the slave, neither one is being recognized by the
mobo. Everything works fine when I use the same arrangement, only with
a CD drive in place of the DVD drive (I'm typing this on the very
computer with the problem). So it's definitely something to do with
the DVD-114, only I'm at a loss as to what it could be. This drive
worked fine before, and it's getting power (the light lights up when I
turn everything on).

Any ideas/suggestions??

Did you install the chipset drivers?
