Yes, I've misplaced my CD Drives. At least, Windows thinks so.
The computer knows they're there, because I can boot from them, but they don't show up in Windows Explorer.
I don't know exactly when this happened - it was a while ago and I didn't have time to address it then. Now I can't think of what I might have done to make it happen. There is one thing I do know, one drive had its letter re-asssigned.
This is/was my setup:
A:\ local floppy
C:\ local HD
D:\ supposed to be local CD-ROM
E:\ network HD
F:\ network HD
R:\ supposed to be local CD-R/RW
Y:\ network CD
Z:\ network HD
I'm running XP Pro on an NTFS SCSI drive.
Disk administrator only shows C:\ and a small (31MB) un-labeled FAT partition - I believe that was used by XP during installation.
Device Manager says "Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot find the hardware device. (Code 41)" The troubleshooter is completely worthless, as it often is.
Any suggestions?
