Hi there...

I hope someone can help!

While I was using my computer..the "disk in-active" light on my philips cd rw drive began flashing and i could not access it and when i pressed the eject button, nothing happened. So i rebooted my computer..once restartnig and the next time turning the power off and on again. This time the drive is nolonger listed as being installed on my computer! but the darn light is still blinking on it. In the control panel under "system" it is nolonger listed there. I tried the "adding new hardware" menu, but with no success. When i click on icon "my computer" only my floppy drive, my 2 hard drives and my cd rom are listed(a, c, d, e; respectively)..not the cd rw. Just in case I ran my norton anti virus 2002...it found nothing.

Can anyone put me on the right path to fixing this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance
