It looks like the DVD burner is installed on the same cable as the hard disc. In the BIOS, set the hard disc as the first boot device, set the jumper of the hard disc as master and then set the jumper on the DVD burner as slave.
It could also be possible that upon fitting the DVD device that the hard disc cable has loosened so you can push them in firmly into the sockets.
