...whats happening? This problem began when I downloaded Magic Disc. I decided I wouldn't actually use it so I have uninstalled it. Since then I cannot use my dvd rom, an IDE controller has malfunctioned and I can't get it working again, and despite re-installing the software it will not work.
I have tried downloading firmware from Samsung but it isn't working. I have also set the drive to slave.
If there is a solution I hope to find it, even though I will probably buy an up to date drive quite shortly, but I think that I shouldn't need to.
Would downloading service pack 3 for XP Pro and reinstalling it, perhaps work?
The dvd rom is a Samsung SD-606/ PBE OR SD-606F depending on which number I read on the drive.
I have checked that the IDE cable is connected properly.
The floppy and HDD are detected on same cable.
A previous suggestion that I should look into the registry has provided no luck because I don't know what the upper filters and lower filters are.
Otherwise nothing with that name was on the system.
