Now thus may seem stupid but...

1) Have you checked that the jumpers (little marker things) are set correctly on both drives?
2) Are you using the same IDE cable to connect both hard drives to?
3) Have you checked the BIOS to see if the motherboard recognises the fact you have connected 2 hard drives?

Personally I'd probably just take all the plugs from the CD/DVD drive and attach the slave drive to those.

Dont shake your PC/Hard drive ever! This may work with 1980's stereos but Comps are a little more delicate. This isn't a loose connection issue here.

We need more info though as well. Can you see the drive at all? Or just this partition missing?
