14772 2001-06-30 22:30:00 I cant use the cd drive (cd writer) i have looked in the device manager and there is no sign that there is 1 installed the software to run the writer is installed but when I try to use it it cant find the cd writer. The cd writer's tray works it ejects and retracts fine, the light goes on to say that there is a cd in there. So if u have any ideas then let me know cheers Guest (0)

14774 2001-07-01 08:38:00 just an idea if the writer has just been installed perhaps the ide cable has been dislodged when reconnecting something else after installation? EG: maybe floppy drive Guest (0)
14775 2001-07-01 11:58:00 Has the cd writer been working before. Do you use adaptec cd creator, Do you have windows media player 7 installed ?
