My son put in a chessmaster cd, my system froze, I re-
booted and all of a sudden, my cd drive wasn't there. It
doesn't show in device manager and I can't open it
manually. It's as if it's not there at all. Can someone
please help. Thanx in advance.

Have you turned it off and un-plugged and re-plugged your wide DATA cable
and the smaller POWER cables?

You may want to list your status of;
1. C:\Widows\Temp\ Temp Files ? How many?
2. Amount of RAM memory ?
3. Size of free space on Hard Drive ?
4. How many programs are running at the same time? ALT CTRL DEL
5. Last time and how often your run SCANDISK ?
6. WindowsUpdates ?
