Hi all,
I'm using Windows XP Professional SP3.
Sometimes CPU usage is about 20 %
with SytemIdle Process 99 %
and one of my 2 CDs is invisible.
Any help, direction, please......
thanx in advance.

"CPU usage is about 20 %"
Nothing wrong with that...

"SytemIdle Process 99 %"
....or that.

"one of my 2 CDs is invisible"
We may be able to help with that if you can explain exactly what you
mean by "invisible"

Invisible means this CD does not appear in Windows Explorer or Disk Management.
1st CD (visible) SATA
2nd CD (invisible) IDE

CPU usage back to 1% when 2nd CD was removed.

"You can no longer access the CD drive or the DVD drive, or you receive
an error message after you remove a CD recording program or a DVD
recording program in Windows XP: error code 31"

Your CPU usage is not relevant in this case.
