i got a new computer and when i first turned it on there were no shortcuts for my dvd-rw or dvd-rom on the desktop. so i went to my computer right clicked on the icons and clicked create shortcut for both and the shortcuts appeared but now when i double click them it says that the path is no longer valid. i think there is a fix but im not sure or where to get it
 
Press the "Window key" + "E" ... that the shortest cut I know. ;)
 
that takes you to my computer that links fine i didnt really explain properly the links to my dvd drives dont work
 
Right click on your desktop and "Create Shortcut", using the path as "d:\" if that is your CD-Rom Drive... it should work :) You might get that error if there is no disc in the drive though.
 
Right click My Computer, press Open, drag-n-drop ...:)
 
i ve tried both and they seem to work only when the pc has recognised the disk.

thanks alot
 
when i put a disk in the computer reads it then sits for about a minute until the desktop shortcut actually works otherwise i have to use the shortcut in my computer
