I have a Samsung SW-252F (52 x 52 x 32) CD - Rewriter (running under Windows XP)
Whilst using Windows Media Player to copy files (MP3) to a CD-R (as MP3)......
the screen froze. The PC was re-booted and since then the CD drive does not work.
The CD drive is visible within "My Computer" as drive D:
When you load a CD into the D: drive, the lights on the front of the drive flash as if its trying to read the CD but the contents are not seen by "My Computer"
I have gone into System Properties, Hardware, Device Manager and uninstalled the CD drive.
Upon re-booting, Windows XP detected the new hardware...............but it still does not work.
I have even tried the "Troubleshooting" option....
Any suggestions (sensible preferably) ?
