Ok, I hope some can help me out:

OS: Windows XP Pro

I used to have two cd-roms, 1) a DVD-R/RW and DVD-Rom player, which can play Cd-Roms by the way and 2) a CD-R/RW player. The CD-RW was letter G and DVD-R was letter H.

I had to take out the CD-RW since it broke. Windows XP booted up. And my DVD-R became letter G. I couldn't access since Win XP was telling me it was a Cd-Rom!!

So I change the DVD-R letter back to H. Everything was fine, or so I thought. When I boot up into Windows XP it recognizes it as a DVD-R but maybe 10 minutes later. Windows Explorer tells me it is a CD-RW!

When I insert anything CD-R, DVD-R, CD-RW, CD-ROM, DVD, nothing happens. :(

Anyone knows what the problem is?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
