    Okay so, I was wanting to write an audio CD so I installed a new disc drive. At first, when I went to my computer I would do, Eject on Drive E and it would eject both trays.

    So I decided to install the DOS Drive from the CD thinking that would give it it's own drive.

    Now, when I view my computer it only shows my floppy drive, C drive and other documents but no disc drives.

    Thanks in advance. :D

    I assume your new drive is IDE. Have you set Master/Slave jumpers properly?

    I got it sorted out.
    It was actually the disc drive that was messed up so I had to get a new one.

    Thanks!
