CD ROM Drive

[Guest]

Hi every one,
When I turned on my pc today, tried to play some music and inserted a CD,
waited for a long time but the autoplay did not start. I opened my Windows
Explorer and discovered that the CD ROM drive (E) had disappeared. Can some
one please help me to slove this problem?

I have a similar problem, only I can see my CD ROM (E) drive, but I can't
open it. Also when I try to burn a file onto a CD, when I right click on the
file, the CD ROM (E) link does not appear in the 'send to' menu. If I put a
CD with content on it, it works, but when try to access an empty disc (for
burning etc) it says 'E:\ is not accessible. Incorrect function.' Any clue
here someone? please.

Make sure the "enable recording" tab is checked.
