| 226214 | 2004-03-31 10:49:00 | When I switch off my computer I loose my CD Rom drive. Every time I boot up I have to go to control panel--Add New Hardware to load it again. I am running XP. What do you think my problem is? Egull |

If not and it keeps disappearing from the bios, I would think that's where your problem lies. Is the date also resetting itself? if so might be time to replace the motherboard battery. Hope this helps. |
