Solve : Where's the CD ROM???

Answer»

Recently moved my computer, now the cd drive doesn't work. Opened up, checked the connections and dusted. Still no drive recognized. Checked DEVICE mgr ("drive is working properly"). When I try and run a cd (music, and otherwise) get the msg "E:\ is not accessible." Called RADIO SHACK, "J" sez I NEED new cd rom. Recommended a certain brand.....how do I know what kind I need? How much to spend? (w/ Windows 98, 5 yr.old computer) He recommended I/O Magic 52x24x52 Internal $59.99. Should I just hire someone to come over and check out my computer? I'd like to try and do it myself if I could. Sorry for the lengthy msg, but wanted to get as much info as I could out there so I don't get scolded...ha. Thanx in advance. You should check to see if any cables have to be reinserted that could have been disconnected whilst moving.

try ANOTHER ide cable first before buying a new drive also  a disk cleaner may also help...
