Change the IDE cable and reconnect it to the computer. Preferably, connect a second IDE cable to the COMBO drive in master mode.

Check the position of the jumper in the master/slave select terminal.

Reinstall the device driver or update it with the latest version by downloading it from the Samsung Web site.
