Hi,
I recently changed the fan in the PSU on my machine, in order to do this I
had to remove the power plugs to both CD drives, not the ribbon cables, just
the power plugs. Obviously this was done on a table with all the power and
other leads removed.
I put it all back together and everything works fine except the CD drives. I
know the power plugs are connected because they both light up and open and
close. I also have an external DVD burner and that wont work either.
In 'My computer' all three icons for the CD drives D, E and F drives are
gone. Device manager shows them all with the yellow exclamation mark, right
clicking and going 'Update Driver' returns 'Cannot update driver'
I cant see how removing the plugs and refitting them with the power off
would make any difference, but nevertheless, none of them will work even
though the computer is seeing them all. I suppose it may be a coincidence
but it seems odd!
Any advice please? I know a little about these things but I'm by no means an
expert,
Regards,
Alan.
