Are you making sure that the jumper settings are changed to denote whether the drives are 'Master' and 'Slave' accordingly?
The drive on the end connector must be 'Master' and the drive on the middle connector must be 'Slave'.

Yes, ive tried that and cable select, but the pc just seems to see them as cdrom's. I don't have a problem if installing cdrom as master and dvdwriter as slave.
