did your CD drive randamly disappear and appear?

I couldn't find UMAX Actionbook info.
is your IDE Controller driver are from UMAX?
4 in 1 VIA chip are fully compatible with your UMAX?
IF not you can contact UMAX to find supported driver.
or rollback to original driver.
also how do you connect internal IDE Drive via LPT port?
