Windows Forum / Windows XP / General Topics 1 / May 2008Drive Not Found- Error 41
Strange development in migrating from XP Pro to SP2, or somewhere along the way. I have a mix of EIDE AND SCSI devices on my main system and run XP Pro and SCO OSR (Unix). Both OSs share two SCSI CD drives, one of which is a burner. Unix sees the drives just fine. XP Pro installs drivers for the SCSI CD drives, however it reports Error 41 (device not found) when you check hardware properties. Drive letters are no longer assigned for these two devices. I don't remember exactly where this issue developed, but had been noticing (and ignoring) some problems for some time. Any suggestions to bring these drives back to life under Windows would be gratefully accepted. Thanks, DAW First install the MB chipset installation utility from the mfg (intel,amd,etc), after,install the SCSI controller software from its mfg web site... > Strange development in migrating from XP Pro to SP2, or somewhere along the > way.

As far as SCSI is concerned, the SCSI BIOS is loaded during boot, followed by a search for SCSI devices, of which 5 are found, not including the SCSI card, which is there but not identified during boot.

Then I deleted the two SCSI CD drives from the system, re-started it, and they still come up with drivers installed, but no link to drive letters, still error 41. One more thing to try is to remove an external backup drive I added for my network of 3 computers and which took up one of the old drive letters once used by the CD devices.

No idea where to go from here. Board is Intel D845PEBT2 and it is carried as an unsupported board, but they do have some software for it. None of the software related to CD Rom drives. It was mostly for USB, Video sets, etc. Help! DAW ================== > First install the MB chipset installation utility from the mfg > (intel,amd,etc), [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] >> >> DAW |
