Hi. I have a dual boot system with WinNT/Win2k on the same hard disk and different partitions. WinNT is on C:, Win2k is on E:. Both OS's installed fine. The problem now is the CD Rom is not being seen in NT. The CD Rom was working fine in NT after Win2k was installed. I can see the CD Rom in Win2k fine. When I go in NT now, there is just the C: and E: drives. Thanks in advance for any help.

Why would you even set up NT and 2K together even if you set them up on seperate partitions? Since 2K is actually based off the NT and some say it is the next version of NT 4.0, there shouldn't be a need to even have NT on your machine. I would stick with just 2K and get rid of the NT.
