    I tried to use my CD drive and it did not work, so I tried the DVD Drive, well it was also gone.
    Then, I use the troubleshooter with no avail.
    Ok, then I uninstall one of the drives, I restart the machine (reboot it) and window xp pro reinstall the drivers but found no device (code 41).
    The device and the cables are all properly secure. What's wrong?

    Hi Ken-919, thanks for the link that you send me.
    The link did not solve the problem by itself, but it lead to me to experiment with a couple error messages in that site.
    Well, I went to the registry editor and deleted the high and low filter. I rebooted the system and ….. There they were! The two drives in My Computer again.
    However, my burning program (Record Now, from Sonic) could not see the drives. I got a patch, I downloaded, I rebooted again and everything is fine.
    Again, ken-919 thanks for the link (I already put it in My Favorites).
    Oscar.
