recently I had to put in a 3rd hdd in my system temporarily and had to
disconnect my DVD drive. I have 2 internal hdd, 1 DVD drive and 1 CD-RW
drive. I am running Windows XP with SP2.
After I took backup of my first 2 hdds, I connected back my DVD drive.
Now I see 2 DVD drives and it is very confusing since some of the software
does not know which drive to access. Also the CD's or DVD's title does not
appear on the drive icon, so I do not know which one to use.
Call Dell was useless, they suggested me to delete the icon, which is not
possible.
Anyone know how to solve this issue ?
