I've got an old Yamaha 8x CD-RW that just started to disappear from My computer in windows XP Pro. It's really strange, the cdrw shows up in my bios and I can put in a bootable cd and boot and use the drive just fine. but when I boot up into windows xp Pro the drive is gone and I have no access to it. It just started to do this, in the beginning it would only happen when I put in a cd that came with one of my text books and all I'd have to do was take the cd out reboot and the drive would show up again in windows. However, now the drive is just gone ever time I boot up in windows.
Thanks for the help
