Installing Hardware

My friend gave me a burner and a 54x cd-rom drive. I had my friend install them, but i don't think he did it right. My computer knows that they're there but says that I need a driver. My friend apparently never had one. I need my computer to recognize the cd drive as my d: drive. How am I to do this without a driver?

it needs to be configured in the bios. dont mess it up cuz
it can screw up ur comp.

you usually dont need drivers, if youre running winxp, then you need to download something to update your system
