Sounds almost like the cdrom and one of the hdd's are setup as master or slave in the 
same chain.  I've seen this happen before.  Might want to check it out.  I presume 
they are all IDE.  If SCSI then forget I said anything :-)

then you have a problem with your drive, try to make the drive it self
work on another computer, wipe it totaly out so there is no /mbr (fdisk)
info on it, then again try it where you left.
