The CDrom drives always have worked fine its just that I'm not getting a reading on what is in the drives when they are occupied in the MY COMPUTER window. Its somewhat inconvenient since I have to go to disc management just to find out the exact name of the disc that is in the drives, I also like being able to tell when the drive is loaded as the name of whatever CD is put in the drive\s is instantly displayed the second it loads if things were normal.

I did try uninstalling the driver for D-tools and then rebooted into safe mode. The J drive still showed up even in safe mode. Maybe the d-tools driver isn't what is cuasing that to appear. I just reformatted this system a week ago and now have it the way I like it except for these 2 problems.

Dr. Killer, I really don't care to spend another day or more installing windows, updating and then reistalling all the other software if there is a quick solution to this problem. Reformatting might be the only answer and I know its one solution that will fix my problem but I'm going to stick it out for awhile and hope someone shoots me some more suggestions to try first.
