Cannot locate CD Drive
I have a DELL Dimension 8400 with Phillips DVD+RW drive. While trying to install software from the DVD drive I get this message: "Cannot locate CD Drive". The installation then fails.
I have installed all the drivers from DELL including the chipset driver. Has anyone else come across this kind of problem?
Thanks,
Jerry.

Hi Jerry,
Click on the CD/RW link in my post and scroll to Section 15, article 1, it may just be a driver issue.
If not, open the case and re-seat the IDE cable going from the motherboard to the backof the drive.
Best Regards
God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do and the eyesight to tell the
difference.
