Recently I noticed that my CD Drive was no longer appearing in the My Computer Window. I was using a virtual image of a game I own and had installed but that I couldnt find the disk for (I swear, I owned it ) Once I disabled the virtual drive I no longer had a CD drive show up in My Computer even though there is one installed and it is installed correctly. It is set up as the slave to the hard drive which I believe is correct. The jumpers are correct and it shows up in the BIOS but not under windows XP. I would try to update the drivers but I dont know who makes it, only that it is a 16x CD/DVD Drive. This is all happening under windows xp. If someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it. I would like to fix it quickly so if someone could help me out over AIM, my SN is: verymanynames
Also, I figured I would try to uninstall and reinstall the drive. The CD Drive Section is not showing up under device manager at all. I figured maybe I could do it manually so I turned off the computer, Unplugged the drive and restarted. It went to a black screen and I heard a voice saying "System Failed PPU test" over and over.
Thanks a lot.
