The primary or secondary IDE???

The one your drive is on. If it should be on the primary (with C I'd
personally move it to the secondary, then boot and remove.

Use the same method, but remove the ide controller entry I previously
mentioned, not the DVD/CD device.
See my other reply regarding another question you had.

Ok, I removed the DVD drive. Rebooted. Now it has renamed my DVD
drive
the
D drive again. Tried a CD. Still get the same thing ... a flickering
little yellow/green light but it never plays the CD or recognizes it.

Not hard...

1. Winkey + Pause/Break (to open Device manager...or do it the way
you
are used to)

2. Expand the CDROM entry

3. Click the correct drive

4. Click "Remove"

5. Close Device Manager

6. Reboot

There should be a "mother" for both of these. Remove it only. In my case,
ita and Intel Ultra ATA storage controller listed above the two you
mentioned.

If not there, remove both you mentioned. Secondary first..
