My friend is having a problem with his CD-Rom drive and unfortunately I can't help him. Rather then me try and describe it, here it is straight from the horse's mouth.
-----------------------------------------------------
I bought a game Diablo 2 recently, and installed it from my CD-ROM, when I went to run the game it said that my disc wasn't in the CD-ROM although the disc was. So I went to my device manager to see what the problem with my CD-ROM was and the CD-ROM did not register in my device manager. I downloaded and tried many different drivers including the ones that came with my CD-ROM but still, nothing would make it register in the device manager. I figured the problem was my CD-ROM may just be an awful CD-ROM so I went out and bought a nice Sony CD-RW. I installed it and yet still it would not register in my device manager. The CD-RW would work and let me install things off it but only by going through the install progam at Add/Remove programs. I dont know what to do. I have installed the CD-RW as each secondary master and secondary slave with no success. I did notice that in my device manager it has said for a while that my primary and secondary IDE controllers are not functioning properly, I dont know if this has anything to do with my problem or not but I would appreciate any advice on how to fix this problem of mine.
