Odd, let's assume that the dirve isn't scsi and isn't on a propariry
interface. 
Since your hard drive is hda, hdb, hdc, or hdd are your canidates. I'd
try mounting /dev/hdc first, then hdb, and hdd if all that fails. 

If still nothing...it might be an icky propitary drive but that doesn't
seem likely in a "modern" computer like an eMachine. 

Did you remember to mount your cd? 
mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
