I mean the little black pieces of plastic that go over two prongs on the back of your HDD and CD-ROM. You put them over top of two prongs according to if you want your HDD master or slave. After you put the jumper on the HDD correctly, you have to put it on the right connector on the cable. So you need the jumper set to Master on the HDD, and then put it on the Master connector on the IDE cable. Same thing with CD-ROM if you want it Master on the secondary cable. Like I said before, if the HDD or CD-ROM have the jumpers set wrong, or if they're not on the right connector on the IDE cable, BIOS simply won't detect them. Good luck!
