Both my cdroms no longer display files from explorer. If I put in a cd, it know there is one there but does not display files. If I start in dos mode I can see the files.

deleting folder on backup D drive(CPQDRV) by leowomn
I royally messed up my Works2000 and cannot remove nor reinstall it, and cannot install a new Works program because it detects the old one. Can I delete the folder from CPQDRV without messing up anything else and would this remove all traces of Works2000?

When I conenct the audio cable from my CD-ROM to my sound card (ISA PnP) Win98SE won't detect my soundcard. I unplug the audio cable, Win98SE and my BIOS detect it fine. The cable is fitted in the right way; it has plastic guiding stuff on both the CD-ROM and the soundcard.
