[PLUG] lost cd-rom drive under win

[Douglas Howard]

Go to Control Panel and run Add New Hardware.
It will scan your machine and probably find it.
If it doesn't, you can add the driver yourself with it.

Sorry for asking this question here, but I can't google it, been trying for
over an
hour. Can't find it in the SARC site, either.

Maybe a good flame Mike will divert attention from the recent drama on the
list.

Is there a virus or something that knocks out the cd-rom drive in win9x?
I've gone
through all of my regular tools. Damn thing just got my laptop, too. I know
the
drive is fine, because it works great when I reboot into RH 8.0. I'd dump
the win,
but I must run access for a customer.

I've seen three good cd-rom drives unavail in "my computer" on win98 and
win95 in
the last two weeks. All in different locations, all had current virus
protection and
whatnot.

Sign me-- Totally Stumped.
