Others can have a hinged cradle (Some Compaq) and (hinged at front of case) allowing access to screws.

151395 2003-06-12 03:48:00 Looks like I've spoken a little bit to fast. It was working fine until I installed nero. (not sure if that caused the problem) Now it works like a cdr rather than cdrw. When I put a cdrw in it it gives us a dialogue box saying "D:\ is not accessible, Incorrect function" & if I right click an icon on desktop/send to: cdrw does not appear in the side box. gerrypics (323)
151396 2003-06-12 03:55:00 What windows are you running? If Win 95/98/ME then start in safe mode and check in device manager for multiple entries for CD drive. If unsure, it is safe to delete all CD devices shown and restart windows. Windows will then find the correct drivers for it. Pheonix (280)
151397 2003-06-12 04:27:00 Found the problem. Seems that because there are 2 user accounts and both being designated administrators the account we installed from recognises the new cdrw and the other account doesn't. gerrypics (323)
