Check to be sure that the drive is being detected during boot (BIOS). You can also check to see if it shows up in your 'My Computer' as an icon. If not, there is a good chance that either the drive cable/power has been disconnected, or settings have changed in the bios that will not allow the drive to initialize. Sometimes 'cable select' jumper setting can cause problems like this. You may switch jumpers on the CDRW to a master or secondary depending on your specific configuration. If your drive is detected and seems to be showing up in your 'My Computer', then you probably have a stuck drawer. While rare, this can happen. Use a paperclip in the small hole (usually near the eject button) and push straight in. This should release the drive. Pull out all the way, then push eject button. Computerpilot
