I uninstalled alcohol 120% trial edition. I'm not putting it back on my computer unless it is totally required for me to fix this problem.....
I really need some help on this, would appreciate a quick response.

Do they appear in the device manager or on your bios boot up screen?

HDS722525VLSA80
Sony UMH-U HS-CF USB Device
Sony UMH-U HS-MS USB Device
Sony UMH-U HS-SD/MMC USB Device

The drives that contain files still apprear. It's just the disk drives that I can't see.

If those games are protected and none of your drives were able to reproduce the protection scheme then your backups will most likely fail due to failure of authenticating the disk as an original.
Alcohol when installed would provide the necessary emulation in order for these backups to run and now that it is removed...

The rest were never made into images.
Would it fix it if I just reinstalled the software though?

Are your CD/DVD drives listed in Disk Management?
Have you tried booting up in Safe Mode to see if they're there or Last Known Good Configuration?

If they're not available, have you checked your IDE cable connections?

Where are the IDE cables?
I checked all the wires in back and they're all in there tight...
