It would be helpful to the rest of us if you could explain
a bit more ..... did the drive letters switch? Did you
recently uninstall and then reinstall one of them? Please
try to tell us what you did OK? As it is, your
description isn't too helpful.
Hello Una,
Whats' "computer jaragon"?
I had a similar problem some months back and solved it this way:-
Click Start/Control panel/Performance and Maintenance/Admin. Tools.
Double click on Computer Management.Click on Disk Management. You
should see your DVD and CD-RW drives there and their Drive Letters.
You will now have to change one to the other.
This worked for me:-
You should see a square button labelled DVD-ROM and one labelled
CD-ROM with the drive letter assignments on them.
Right click the DVD button first and click "change Drive letter and
paths for E (or D ).Then in "Allow access to this volume by using the
following drive letter and paths" select "change".Change it to another
available letter in the
drive letter menu drop-down( F or G maybe)and then using this same
procedure
change the CD-RW drive letter to what the DVD-ROM used to be before
you changed it to F or G.
When you're through doing that change the DVD-ROM (now named F or G)
to the drive letter assigned to the cd burner.
A straight switcheroo won't work because you can't change to a drive
letter that is already assigned.
Hope this helps.
