that was my thought too..i think he meant d: being a harddrive 'cuz if he deleted a cdrom drive i'm sure he woulda said...as far as i know it's not possible to delete (unmount) a drive entirely from within windows 3.1,so without knowing more i don't think there's much i can help with...Manender, does your cdrom still work- that is, can you put one in and open it in filmanager?
