I lost my cd-rom and cd-rw drive after I removed my
directcd software.

I've followed the instruction about how to edit REGEDIT
and get rid of high value and low value.

After restart my pc. it's only found my cd-rom drive
which is on 2ndary IDE master. it did not find my HP
writer plus drive on my 2ndary IDE slave. How can I make
my pc to identify my cd-rw drive ? Because it keep
finding my cd-rom drive only.

Thank for your help.
 
Hi, I also had a problem I could not solve on my own.
My cd writer was not recognized by XP home edition
I posted my problem on Windows XP Hardware newsgroup, got one reply, but I didn't know
how to implement the reply. In desperation I poked around my compute
until I stumbled on Help and Support. I asked for support and in less then 24 hours
they e-mailed a detailed step-by-step procedure, which solved my problem
Since my knowledge of computers is marginal, at best, it was important for me that th
procedure was very detailed and did not assume that I know anything about computers

If you would like to get support to solve your problem, left click on:
Start>Control Panel>Help and Support (on left panel)>>Get support (on right panel)>Get help from (on left panel)>>Ask support professional for help (on right panel), then answer a series of questions

All the best, Adam
 
I got it. I unplug the cable and reconnect. and shut down
and restart it. My BIOS find my cd-rom and cd-rw drive.

So may be after doing the regedit. just shut it down and
mess with hardware. to make sure they are working.
SOme time replaceing a new cable help.

Amy.
