Put on 2nd hard drive, but wouldn't work....
As title suggests, i have a PC which stopped working, so though id connect both hard drives up on one, both were running win98SE, but one owuldn't work....though it was a bit strange, but then i thought 'you cant really just plug them both in and ecxpect it to work!', so took out the 2nd one, switched power back on, and now i have no drivers for my CD drive?
Tried fully reinstalling windows, as if i put a CD in it when u turn the power on, it will recognise it, but not when all booted up and ready to use......however, that didn't solve it! Auto start doesn't work, D: has dissapeared, and all is not too good! Any ideas what i can do now? The only intrernet access i have is at work, which wont allow any files to be saved anywhere (Even floppy...) so i cant download any drivers etc... Cheers for any help! Oh, and Belarc/Everest recogises there is a cd drive there.... |

Start regedit on the problem computer, expand and highlight the following key and look in the right window for "NOIDE". If you find it, delete it, then restart the computer.
