You have either not put the IDE cable back into the hard drive.
Or not re-connected the 4 pin power cable.

All I can think of at current info level.

Anyone else got any ideas? I've got all my work on there :mad:

Have you put the new cd burner and the hard disk on the same IDE cable? If so have you checked the jumper settings are okay on both drives?

If your motherboard is older then you may have to detect the IDE devices in bios. Most, well all, modern boards detect them automatically, but you may have to detect them manually.
