Unable to detect CD-ROM drives.
Try checking if the CD-ROM drives are configured on BIOS. If aren't, at
computer startup press the correct key (normally, appears a text such as "Hit DEL to run setup.") to enter setup. Find the Auto-Detect option in IDE drives configuration area. I think that Auto-Detect is only for hard drives, but, in my computer, it was detected two CD-ROM drives plus the hard drive I wanted to detect. This may help, but, if your problem are in Windows, try go to the "Devices Manager", find for any problematic item (if it exists, it's automatically shown) and reinstal their drivers.

Can't do anything about the CD-ROM drive.
Try AVG (http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_dwnl_free.php). -----Original Message----- Hi All, My PC having virus attack. Error message McAfee Activeshield need to reinstall.
