NT fails to detect the CD ROM

by guy d . Updated 25 years, 6 months ago

The CD ROM has disappeared from both My Computer and the BIOS.

Am running a Micron 166 Mhz PC with NT 4.0 and Serv Pack 6.

Things I have tried with no success:

1. 2 different CD ROMs and cables.

2. Tried both Pri and Sec sockets on theMotherboard. The Hard Drive works in both but the CD ROM does not.

3. Put the “bad” CD ROM in another PC, it worked.

4. Updated the BIOS th the latest version.

Any suggestions appreciated.
