31989 2002-01-20 03:29:00 Just recently, I have put a CD in my CD-ROM and it has not auto-started or even spun. the light indicator does not go on what do i do? The CD is a Wearnes 820 Guest (0)

If not then you should probably start by checking the cables for the CDrom.

[right click My Computer > Properties > Device Manager tab - or press WIN key + PAUSE/BREAK > Device Manager]

Double click CD-ROM Drive > double click the device (Wearnes 820) > click Settings tab > ensure the settings under 'Options' are correct > click Apply/Okay.

Cheers!!!
