| 269582 | 2004-09-05 22:22:00 | I have Win XP.Somehow the CD-Rom has been disabled.When I use the troubleshooter,it tells me windows can not enable the hardware.Obviously I can't use a CD to fix the problem.What can I do? | bollocks (6128) | ||
| 269583 | 2004-09-05 22:26:00 | Whats it say under device manager for the CD?? Has it got a X ! or other beside it?? | Spacemannz (808) | ||
| 269584 | 2004-09-05 22:30:00 | Yes,it has a big red X over the Atapi cd-rw 52x max in device manager,which is under the cd-rom line | bollocks (6128) | ||
| 269585 | 2004-09-05 22:38:00 | Ah OK. Delete that entry and reboot bollocks. See what happens. I take it, this CD has worked before? Or have u just installed it?? If it has just been installed, is it enabled in the BIOS?? And is it on AUTO in the BIOS?? And if also just installed, whats it set on?? Master or slave on the back of it?? And what else is connected to it (if another burner or DVD)?? |

| 269586 | 2004-09-05 23:03:00 | It has worked until recently,installed in May.Something to do with Realtek? was removed.What do you mean by delete entry?I have Nero but have never used it. | bollocks (6128) | ||
| 269587 | 2004-09-05 23:06:00 | Where that X shows in device manager for that CD. Highlight it, press the delete key delete it then reboot. It will reappear Have another look under device manager, see if any other X's show in there for any other devices. |

| 269589 | 2004-09-05 23:47:00 | Cool glad its working! Umm, what audio CD's are u playing?? Some are protected. More recent CD's, if you brought them. Or you could try getting the latest version of Windows Media Player V10. Which came out recently. It doesnt look too bad. Check it out at www.microsoft.com |
