| Helping out a friend on this one. Ephrion Noirpe (3:25:33 PM): first I had a nonfunctioning CD drive Ephrion Noirpe (3:25:46 PM): the cable wasn't plugged in fully, so I fixed that Ephrion Noirpe (3:25:53 PM): WIndows won't detect the drive Ephrion Noirpe (3:26:13 PM): So I spend about half an hour looking for stuff online trying to fix it Ephrion Noirpe (3:26:21 PM): And now, all of my effort has given me Ephrion Noirpe (3:26:27 PM): a CD drive with the tray popping out Ephrion Noirpe (3:26:32 PM): That still won't work Ephrion Noirpe (3:27:38 PM): .. with a red light That's an AIM screen name, by the way and I'm sure he'd be more than happy is someone IMed him if what he told me isn't enough. |

| Is the IDE cable even plugged in the right way? A constantly-on light usually means it's in upside-down. | |||

What brand is it? I have a very nice Creative 52x drive that died on me shortly after I got it...first, it wouldn't read any discs (it would shuffle around a bit and then spit the disc out), then soon after, the computer wouldn't recognize it at all. The light was a constant yellow-orange at this point (which is weird, because it's only supposed to be either red or green, depending on whether it's in "turbo" mode or not). It worked for a short time after moving it into a different computer, though...  If everything checks out OK, BIOS- and cable-wise, the drive's probably gone bye-bye.
