I am continuing this thread from "problems with *my
computer*, IE, etc."...got tired of clicking all those x's.

Still cannot use my CD-Rom. Can we start over? I took care
of all the other virus stuff (i hope) so i'd like to focus
on just this.

CDrom tray works, light goes on for a couple of seconds
and thats it. There is no "D" drive listed in *my
computer*. Device manager shows it, says it is working
properly. Settings doesn't show a current drive letter
assignment, but is under reserve letter settings. Under
drivers it says no drivers are required or have been
loaded. If i try to install one it says that the best
driver is all ready installed C:\WINDOWS\INF\MSCDROM.INF.

CDROM stopped working about the time a got a virus(s) but
don't know if that is a coincidence. I did get the drive
listed in *my comp* at one point while doing the virus
thing but lost it again. (don't know what i did)

Can't install tweakui, it wants to be run from the control
panel and I can't do it. If it probably won't work
anyway....

I appreciate all your help. For the sympathy vote, my DVD
player also stopped working as well as the nintendo game
cube (31 days old- guess what the store warrenty is?), and
now ps1 is acting funny. I think the virus infected my
whole house.
