Hi Florence:

Try booting from a floppy bootdisk that has CDROM
support.  You can get one free from
http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm 

You can use one of the Win9x disks.  You won't be
able to "see" your hard drive if it's NTFS, but
you should be able to "see" your CDROM drive.

That should verify that the CDROM drive and
motherboard are OK.

Jerry
