Missing icons

[Allenv]

In windows 2000 in my computer I don't show a D or E drive but in device manager they they do.They used to be there but now aren't? Bios reconizes them on boot up.When I put a cd in them they lie up and spin and then stop .
Any ideals

Are they on the same IDE cable? I had this once in XP, the cable was going bad. Sometimes they would show, sometimes they wouldn't. Always showed in BIOS though. That has me real confused for a while.
