How to re-enable your CD/DVD Drive in XP

Here's how u do it (No comment's on software from me).
Left click Start / Control panel/ then when Control panel box / Window opens, Scroll down if nesessary, and select System / Hardware Tab /Device Manager and select DVD/CD rom drives.
If any of these has a red X , then it is disabled , Simply right click and select"Enable" to re-enable the hardware device...

Sorry (Last post)

Sorry about my last post (Didn't see you were already in Device Manager), Try checking your BIOS settings and resetting the drive(s) from there.
And if this doesn't work, Open up the case and check the IDE connections.

Starforce seems to have many weird & wonderful ways of Fu**ing up your Hard / Software. Thank god for little toolz like SF nightmare / Cleaner- (Even if re-enabling cd drive's in software tend's to crash XP).
