re: all my CD rom drives suddenly dissappeared Friday, February 3, 2006 at 8:25 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Dean (1 messages posted) On Wednesday February 2, I was trying to copy some data into one of my CD ROM drives using Nero and all of the sudden all my CD/DVD ROM drives disappeared form my Explorer list. I lost contact with 2 internal drives and one external drive. Although I will try the scrip that seems to work for everyone else, I would like to know what's causing this issue? Why can't Microsoft eliminate this in their XP Operating system?
