Hi Guys

I feel very stupid as there should be an obvious answer to this but I can't think of it.

I have Vista 64 and have some Event Viewer errors like "Bad block on device\cdrom0" - what I can't work out is how to track down what physical device related to "device\cdrom0". I have a couple of physical dvd drives and a logical partition on a Toshiba USB hard drive that presents itself as a cdrom (don't ask - it has something to do with device security) so it would be helpful if I could find a hardware table of registry entry which told me which device my system thinks is cdrom0.

Thanks
