Also if I try to rip anything to them or burn anything from them they lock up and they stop showing up in 'My Computer' till I reboot.

I'm guessing you mean to/from cd burner. Check the tranfer mode of the drives: Device manager>ide controllers>both primary and secondary channels (hdd's are probably on primary, cd-roms on secondary) The
transfer mode should be
DMA if available. The
current transfer mode should be
DMA, not PIO.

Click on My computer. rite click on the drive>select properties>hardware tab>highlight a drive>click properties>policies tab- uncheck the “enable write caching on the disk”
