Cd (E:) No worky...

My (E drive wont work, it wont show up either,
I try installing it and tried rolling back drivers and troubleshooting but
it wont work
i look for drivers and shit on dell.com, but i dont know what the fuck i'm doing
can anyone help me?

I don't know, give me more details.
Do you have two CD-ROM drives?
How many CD-ROM drives appear in MY COMPUTER?
If that one is (E then who is (D? :huh:

Calm down, calm down, fella.

So, is your CD drive is working before that problem occured. Or, can you tell me what had u done to your PC lately?

It was working, i have 1 cd drive, but like
2 dvd drives show up, when i have no DVD,
i had daemon tools but i deleted it a long time ago
and every time i try to uninstall the 2 other drives
they come back after reboot

what have i done?
nothing really, i think, @ first my nero wouldn't work
or i think it just wouldn't burn

Maybe you didn't unistall it at all. Try using Add or Remove Programs from the Control Panel. and look for Daemon Tools in the list or simply, disable them.

I guess your CD-ROM drive doesn't work due to a CONFLICT with Daemon Tools.

Would you damn well stop GUESSING and only give advice when you have a CLUE?

When my CD drives go missing I remove them physically (unplug the IDE cables leading to the motherboard), boot, shutdown the computer again, connect the cables again, boot - they usually show up again after that.

Also, check your computer's BIOS that all drives are being recognised at a lower level than the OS.

I GUESS because I don't use Daemon Tools <_< And why do you think they're no clues? :huh:

No, listen and understand: If you have no idea about the problem or how to solve it, don't just give generic useless instructions. Do not post for the sake of being heard.

OK, i'll try that,

JAP you post whore...

how can i check teh bios?

The things to check

Firstly go into bios, make sure all 4 drives are set to auto-detect

When computer boots up, it will show what drives are detected, problem
is that it disappears before you can read it.

IDE devices (hard drives and cdroms) usually don't need special drivers,
they will just show up in My Computer.

make sure all cables are inserted properly.

make sure no conflicts with master and slave settings

If a drive refuses to show, put it in another computer and see if it appears
there. If not, it's probably had it.

Tell us what you find.

**
To get into the bios, you press a special key when computer is first turned on.
It's different for various brands. Compaq usually F10, Dell usually F2, other may
be DELETE key. Once you're there look at standard settings (normally first
thing in the list), this is where you set the time and set what floppy and hard
drives.
