No CD-Rom

[Karl Kidder]

Hi all,

WinXP Home, w/ all updates. My CD-Rom does not show up in "My Computer" In
the device manager it has a yellow exclamation point next to the drive in
question under cd/dvd roms heading. I attempted to reinstall drivers but am
told that it cannot due to corrupt or missing drivers. I have tried multiple
cd/dvd type drives, same results. My bios sees the drive properly as well as
all other drives. I have done the windows updates looking for a driver,
found nothing. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance...
