All three of my CD ROM drives have quit working. The Device Manager says that the drivers are no good. So how does one fix this since even though I have my Windows XP disc if the drive won't read it I'm in a Catch 22 right ? Any advice ?
C:\> attrib -r -s -h autorun.inf
C:\> del autorun.inf
d:\. attrib -r -s -h autorun.inf
d:\> del autorun.inf
Restart your PC. This should create new drives. If 4 some reason it doesn't work 4 u, then run a System Restore back 2 the day b4 u started having problems with the drives. It should correct any changes that were made........Good Luck!!!!!!!!!
Ok, let us try this. My dvd driver stopped working (LG). Thinking it was the drive, I purchased a new one(Pioneer). The new one does not work either.
In my Device manager the drive is present, however, the icon is not present in "my computer" and of course it does not read or write.
Any suggestions? HELP!!!
