DVD-RW Drive Problem

[Doomsayer]

 Hi,  i'm having slight issues with my new DVD-RW drive,  and using it with my other drives.   my motherboard, an Intel D915GAV supports 1 IDE channel,  which was previously running a CD-RW drive and a regular DVD drive in a master/slave set-up.   i recently purchased a sony DVD-RW drive and when i installed it replacing the regular DVD drive, my motherboard would only recognize the DVD-RW drive (whether it was Master or Slave)   but it would NOT recognize it as a DVD-RW in my BIOS,  it would call it something unusual and sometimes just incoherent symbols!!!  so i then tried using it with the regular DVD drive,   still the same issues whether the DVD-RW was master or slave.   It seems the only way that my BIOS will correctly recognize the drive is by not sharing the channel.  so i only have one optical drive on my one channel.   This is something i would rather not live with.   so,  my questions to you are:  

- is this a common problem with DVD-RW drives and/or how do you solve it?
- if it comes down to it,   is this a good PCI IDE card/ will it work for adding one or two more optical drives to my settup?   http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16816132005

- Windows XP SP2
- Intel D915GAV motherboard
- Intel D915G chipset
- Sony DVD-RW drive
- CD-RW drive
- DVD drive
- Seagate Barracuda 80 Gb HDD (SATA so prob. not relevant)

Thanks a lot!!

Well, that card only has 1 review, so that doesn't give you much to go on.  I'm not personally familiar with the Rosewill brand but Newegg seems to sell a good bit of Rosewill harware.
