NEC 4 CD Changer & Windows 2000

I have two NEC 4 CD changers installed on a Windows 2000 Server. I would like to have Windows 2000 recognize the 2 NEC CD changers as 8 separate drives, as Windows 98 would do. This would enable me to share up to 8 CD's across my network. I've only been able to get Windows 2000 to recognize each NEC CD changer as a single drive. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

I had an NEC 4x4 CD changer and had the same problem with Win95 when the drive first came out. The problem was driver related and, with the newer drivers, the drive recognized the CD changer as 4 separate drives. My guess is that with Windows2000 being very new, the drivers need to be updated for the changer, or they do not yet exist. Either way, I am pretty sure it is a driver related problem.

I agree with that last guy. Go to the NEC site and get the updated Drivers. Windows 2000 has come a long way since you posted this.

Good Luck
