DVD DRIVE NOT SHOWING UP UNDER MY COMPUTER

[samson103]

Here is the problem. When i used the trial version this problem did not happen, but after I bought it, it did. especially after I upgraded to anydvd 6143. Here is the problem.

When I start the computer up from a cold start It recognizes the dvd drive, but if I have to reboot, it does not show up under my computer and I get this error box that says I do not have dvd drive, and it gives you a few suggestions to fix it, but you know as well as I do those never work.

So the short of it, after i restart or reboot the system, for some reason the dvd does not load correctly, but from a cold start from the next day after work, it starts right up fine.
I have a asus dvd burner
Does anyone have any ideas with this? Here is my email address

The Web site of slysoft is www.slysoft.com
I was hoping someone out their has heard of this problem. Anyway I just started up my computer now and it shows the dvd drive listed, but I bet if I reboot, it will not show up.

Welcome to the Forums Here are a couple ideas:

1) see if you can do a System Restore back to before you began having the problem. On Windows XP, System Restore is found in Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools.

2) check this Microsoft knowledge-base article to see if it helps.

Any good?
