My cdrom is not recognized by My Computer, device manager and BIOS. The last
thing that happened was that I put an mp3 cd in the drive and it just stopped
working. This has happened before but usually once I start Add Hardware
Wizard or restart my system it starts working again. I've tried System
Restore but the problem seems to have affected that too because I can't
restore the system either. I've tried 5 restore points. Last good
configuration has not worked either.
I am using Windows XP Professional with SP2 on a Pentium 4 system. My
system is Gateway 7322GZ.
I went to System Information and saw that the cdrom driver is not started.
I would be extremely grateful for any help.
Now we know its a laptop.....8-)
I have a Laptop does the same thing on a regular basis - cheap rubbish
it is.
The CD ROM drive does not quite connect properly in its IDE slot and
gets jolted loose, I can mostly fix it by pressing on the sides of the
drive quite hard and wiggling it till CD ROM shows up in My Computer.
Occasionally I have to take the thing apart and re-seat the drive.
I will nail the sodding thing down next time it fails.
Any help?
