Trying to install a DVD Writer.Help!

Hey all,
Im trying to install a new Dvd Writer, replacing my CD writer.
When i plug it in, i go to the BIOS, but there is no slave drive or something which replaces the CD writer spot, it always has something like @!@! on my DVD Rom drive and says NOT DETECTED on the CD writer spot.

And when i go to My Computer it doesnt show my DVD Writer or DVD ROM drives when the DVD writer is installed.
However, i plugged in my CD Writer it recognises it and its fine.

Help!

Thanks in advance

think this should be somewhere else mate, unless you've got a fancy DVD mobile phone that is.
