Hi,
I did a repair from cd on a XP home pc. The repair was sucessful. I then installed a second hdd as a slave and formated it. The client e-mailed me and said the cd will auto run if you insert a disk but the cd does not show up in my computer. What shows in my computer is c: main drive e: slave drive and a: floppy. Any ideas on how to get the cd-rom shwing.
Thanks
Mark

is the cd rom still onthe ide cable it was befor you added a slave, and this slave did you add it to the cable on the cd rom, if so check you jumper settings on both the cd rom snd the slave hdd, make sure the jumper on the cd is set to master. Giveme more comments on this.
