how can I determine the manufacturer of my cd-rom drive?

Take a look in device manager under CD-ROM.

If not there you may have to look at the drive.

it is not in device manager where at on the drive? Do I
have to take it out?

I have no idea where your drive manufacturer may have put the name and model
on your drive.

You may have to 'get at the drive' to see.

Seems a bit odd that you have to know that.

My computer is not recognizing the drive. So I was going
to go to the manufacturers web site and download the
driver for it but I do not know who the manufacturer is.

You should not have to download a driver for an EIDE drive for operation
under Windows.

Does the BIOS see the drive when you boot? If not:

Check wiring, jumpers (Master/Slave/CS) as appropriate.

Why do you think the secondary channel was disabled ?

it was not recognized in device manager until I enabled
it. My employer probably had it disabled on purpose.

You went out of your way to hide the response which I've separated below.

Some employers disable an ability to use external media to avoid many
problems in an environment that the IT has little control like Win9X.
