Hi again all, Why is my second DVD R-W drive does not show in win Explorer on first start up, but have to restart for it to show up. Thaxs nick
Is this a new drive? Has it always behaved like this? If it's an IDE drive then check the jumpers, if both drives are on the same IDE channel then they should either both be set to CS (cable select) or the 1 on the middle connector should be set to SL (slave), the other on the end connector to MS (master)
2 - 3 yrs old. The registry trick somebody sugested did nothing, bur on last boot I past by the config window & noticed in boot up priorities the second was the cd rom that always shows up first time. I changed the second to HD instead & on first start up both cd roms showed up. Hope it stays so, OR I'll be back!! Thanx all.
I am back At the end had to resolve to the channel settings, BUT the middle is set to MS & the end to SL to get the corect sequense. Thanks nick
