| 134389 | 2003-04-08 09:36:00 | I have a Compaq Presario 2230 running Windows '95. I recently bought a CD RW - BCE 1610IM and installed it myself. It works fine as a CD reader, but Nero won't recognise it as a CD Burner. It's supposed to be "Plug and Play", but when I look in Device Manager I can't find any CD device, but there seem to be two "Standard IDE/ESDI Hard Disk Controllers". I've found one web site that says there is a certain chip set that has this problem, but when I downloaded the patch it said "wrong chip set". Has anyone else struck this problem or got any ideas how to fix it? |

| 134390 | 2003-04-08 10:19:00 | BCE1610IM - supported since version 5.5.2.0 of nero. Ensure you are running this version of Nero or higher Search the Nero site here (www.nero.com) for solutions to recognition problems ... of the CD-ROM drive in Windows 95/98 IDE devices If you use a mainboard with an 82371SB (PIIX3) or an 82371AB (PIIX4) chip set and you see the following line in the Device Manager under harddisk controller Primary IDE Controller (single FIFO) Standard Dual PCI IDE Controller Standard IDE/ESDI Hard Disk Controller then your Windows 95 version does not recognize the 82371SB PIIX3 or the 82371AB PIIX4 controller. This means that BIOS will deactivate the secondary IDE port when next rebooted. |
