Not recognizing DVD burner

I installed another DVD player in my computer; it's a SATA, and the existing one is IDE. Both the SATA ports are already occupied with hard drives, so I bought a SATA controller card. I installed the driver, and it shows up as a "VIA RAID controller" in device manager- and there's a yellow "!" next to it no matter how many times I uninstall and reinstall the driver (This device cannot start. [Code 10]). I've tried it in two separate slots- same error. Of course, the drive doesn't show up in Disk Management, nor in My Computer. It works in that it's getting power, and it spins up disks that I put in there, but it goes no further than that. Any suggestions? TIA!
