I installed a new dvd/cd rw in my notebook computer. Notebook would only go to Gateway splach screen...?

my computer worked fine with the old bad dvd drive, and everything booted correctly, it just wouldnt burn dvd or cds anymore.

After i installed my new drive, the computer would stall shortly after the gateway splash screen. I pressed f10 to get to teh boot menu, no luck. It just takes me to a screen with the computers specifications. I see the drive i installed listed there. so it is recognized.but why is my notebook not booting to windows desktop? Thank you all in advance for your time!

My recommendation: call gateway.
