Hi guys, its been a while since I was here… :DBeen busy lately.
Anyway, I would just like to ask if someone could teach me how to re-enable the CD drive in my PC. You see,it seems our IT guy disabled my CD-R, as I can’t see it on Explorer or My Computer. But, you can load CD to the drive, its just it won’t do a thing… hehehe…I also can’t seem to find it in the Device Manager…:crying: I have tried googling about it, but not much luck from the results.
So, I hope someone could shed light on how to re-enable my CD drive.
By the way, I am on Windows 2000 with Admin rights…
Thanks in advance. 🙂
Did you try to edit the BIOS? I think its in there… anyway, It’ll give you something to do until somebody else gives you clearer instructions. 😀
Check to make sure it is listed and enabled in the BIOS. If it is listed/activated, then it has been disabled by windows. Are you connected to a domain? if so, its unlikely that you can override the security policy. (Other options would include using Virtual device software, or a flash drive)
Thanks for the replies guys.
I haven’t check the BIOS, but I’d like to ask, if its listed/activated in the BIOS, how can I re-enable it in Windows? I am not connected in a domain.
Thanks again.
Try :-
Control Panel
System
hardware —- Device manager
DVD / CD-ROM deive
right click then Uninstall
then re-install.
I hope that is right.@deyamag 221513 wrote:
