Help! The CD drive won't open... I thought it was jammed or something, but when I go to 'My Computer' there is no Cd drive thingy to click on! The light near the eject button is always on, but it won't open. This has been bothering me for 2 weeks now Please help me :( I should mention that I'm a dummy when it comes to computer stuff, so some basic and understandable instructions would help. Thanks in advance!

This tells you how to install, if you follow all the steps & you still have a problem, try ( borrow ) another rom. CD ROM install http://www.duxcw.com/digest/Howto/c...

I am have an issue with my dvd drive. the drivers are install correct and so are the jumper but it cannot find my dvd drivers. Both are not working. what all of sudden how it happen is I was unstalling my software for my lightscribe which is nero and then I went to reinstall it and now none of my dvd drive work and even when I plug in my exeternal one. can you help me??? This is a computer I put together. no brand of computer so I am stick figure this out on my own.

Thanks Johnw... I may have found the problem. In the picture in the link you gave me, there's 3 different cables that need to be attached. Is this true with every type of drive? Because the one on the far left (I think it's the audio cable) isn't connected, and I couldn't seem to find it. The power and data cables are connected though. I'll look again to make sure I didn't miss that last cable.

for some reason the CD drive won't show on the device manager either.. thought I should mention this

"(I think it's the audio cable)" Correct, not your problem. "device manager either.." Tell me if the CD Rom is being recognized from boot up. Hit the pause button during the opening screen & you should see all the installed drives listed. Tell me exactly what you see. Hit the space bar to restart the page loading.

wait... what's the pause button?
