Have cdrom under system, and cdrw driver listed.
Still cannot access cd-rw drive.
What to do? Cant use cd drive at all.

Carefully check your cabling connections to cdrw and all other including to MB. If you changed nothing at reinstall you should be up. And I mean you put it back in same place and on same cable in same spot on cable. You may need to uninstall and reinstall your cdrw software. also check devices and make sure no ? marks are there. I have had to remove ide devices and let them reinstall on reboot. Hope this helps.

I tried all that, but thanks. I managed to download a compatible CDRW driver, however, the only way it works is by inserting the cd, you cannot use any exe files on the hard drive to start a program. This is very annoying. Any ideas on that?
