I don’tknow what happened to my CD drive device not displaying in windows explorer, but in BIOS shows my CD Drive device.
Actually i uninstalled some softwares due to my hard disk free space to back up into DVD using external DVD writer. So i uninstalled the softwares somehow big size programmes not using frequently.After the uninstalled one specific software after rebooting, i noticed there was no CD drive letter[no CD drive]. I don’t know what to do, how to recover it..So i searched in windows XP help support in computer[using windows XP professional in home].
I found one thing related to system restore,so i run the system restore and there’s some option to choose to which period time day to restore before that i uninstalled that software, and also chosen the date and selected that ‘removed software’, then after rebooted the machine, nothing happens the same problem remains.
BUT i have to tell the same problem occurs before one or two months before because of this same software i uninstalled and then there was no CD drive display in explorer,then i selected the system restore option,then i found CD drive displayed as well as also my external DVD writer device shows in explorer.
BUT this time, nothing happens,the problem remains whatever i choose in the system restore or undo changes in system restore wizard,
CD drive is not displaying and also external DVD writer didn’t show up in explorer[opens and ejects].
What can i do now without CD drive , nothing possible to repair or reinstall or install softwares from CD.
Please help me to resolve this whether to checkup download some softwares like registry repair softwares to solve this problem to show my CD drive in explorer, or any other solutions that u give me to follow .
Please helpme.
