I am running win 2000 pro, I have a Asus P4c800 motherboard. Every time I
reboot the computer the Bios-will see both my CD-RW and my Sony DVD player,
but ater the reboot I can not get win 2000 to see it, if I install hardware
it picks it up and installs it. And it will work great,But the next time I
reboot I have to do it all over again, Help Please-

Please be more precise. You write:
"but ater the reboot I can no get win 2000 to see it" - what is "it"?
"if I install hardware it picks it up and installs it" - what is "it"?
"But the next time I reboot I have to do it all over again" - do what again?
 
I have two drives,one Sony CD-RW and a Sony DVD drive. The DVD drive works
and is seen by the windows program and works fine. But in order to get
windows to see the second drive, in windows explorer or the control panel i
have to go to the control panel and install new hardware, which it will see
the second drive and install it, after that the CD-RW works fine, and is seen
in the windows explorer and control panel. But once I shut my computer off
and start it back up I have to repeat the process of installing the CD-RW
everytime
 
Check Event Viewer for errors, check Device Manager for error codes and or
non-starting devices.

In my event viewer I am getting a Sysrtem error EventID#9, could not enable
interrupts on connected port Device\Device\Pointer class0

Source is Mouclass
 
When you view the logged events in Event Viewer (double-click them in the
right-hand pane) in the upper right corner, third button down is a copy to
clipboard, then you can paste in the body of a reply message.

Please do so for each of the different System Log events (that are a Type:
'Error' or 'Warning') since last boot so we can see all of the event detail.

Check that the settings in cmos setup are correct with regards to your PS2
port usage. Check the mobo manufacturer's web site for an updated bios.

Follow this path: Control Panel / System / Hardware /
Device Manager and check DVD/CD-ROM drives.

I am no expert (disclaimer) but i would ask

Q1: What change occured to your system prior to this problem occuring ?
Q2: Have the drives worked before and then stopped working ?



i think either your hardware install for CD-RW is not
being saved and thus the need to re-install (why? i have no advice?)
-or-
there is a hardware conflict with CD-RW/DVD that w2k
can not resolve during boot. From past personal experience,
i suspect the problem is with one of following.

The DVD or CD-RW is newly added Hdwr,
do the drives share same IDE cable ?
maybe a master/slave/cs issue
check and try combination of settings
try a 40/80 conductor cable whichever
is not currently used

maybe the brands do not work well together ?
try movng one drive to other IDE cable
(Note: there are some that claim issues with
slowing down HD performance if HD
shares IDE with cd/dvd drives )

some ideas

Everything was working fine untill I got some kind of virus on my computer. I
am running a four disk hard drive Raid system, I deleted all my programs and
re-installed windows and all my programs. The system has been working fine
for the past two years, but after I installed Windows 2000 Pro again I
started with this problem. I have un-installed both drives and un-plugged
them both,started the computer up again, plugged everything back in and still
have the same problem.I went into my regedit and deleted the file for my PIO
and DMA still did not work.
 
since the CD/DVD were working as configured for some time,
then none of my Hardware related checks are relevant,
unless some coincidental CD/DVD HW failure occured

so, then i suspect problem is software related

i would continue looking for differences between
the original working system and the
post (virus infected) non-working system



1. are you installing the same w2k discs
that the system was originally loaded with ?

that is, did you purchase an out-of-box system
that came with OEM version of w2k loaded ?
and now you are installing some diff w2k discs ?

as OEM or valued added installs tend to be
customized to prevent such problems
could look into downloading the install
from your computer

2. maybe download w2k drivers from the DVD/CD-RW
drive manufacturer

3. if you custom built system from scratch then you
probably do not need any of my advice

4. the pesky virus problem still lurking after re-load.
