Can't use my CD-ROM
When I insert a CD program in my CD-ROM, my computer
doesn't recognize that it's there. I went to Device Manager and there is an yellow circle with an exclamation point next to where it says: "Mitsumi CD-ROM controller with double speed drive". When I click it it say: "not present, not working properly, or does not have all the drivers installed" It has the exclamation point and states the same problem where is says "IDE Primary controller", "IDE secondary controller" and "Standard Floppy Disc Controller": I have Windows 98, what did I do to my computer and how can I fix this? |

Yes you are correct. Close device manager and reboot (restart) on the Start
button. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo wrote in message ...

Can't use my CD-ROM
I did it, but it wouldn't let me remove a few of things
that have a ! It didn't let me delete the "IDE Primary controller", "IDE secondary controller" Then I restarted the computer and it's still the same, the computer doesn't recongnize the CD-ROM. When I click "my computer" it has the floppy disc drive, the c and d drive but the CD is not being recognized. Very frustrating...what do I do? I don't want to have to call a repair guy and pay $$$$ Thanks Thanks-----Original Message----- Yes you are correct.

Can't use my CD-ROM
Try removing them in safe mode (hold down the ctrl key after the memory
count on the boot screen). If there is still a problem, tell exactly what you are doing and what the computer does. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "Alex" wrote in message ...

Hate to say it but your lack of experience and knowledge is showing which
does equate to spending money to fix things. That's true for almost everything now adays isn't it? "Alex" wrote in message ... I did it, but it wouldn't let me remove a few of things that have a !
