    Hi,

    I just changed my power from 300 to 400 warts, but I can’t find my CD drive (which is labeled "D drive" on my computer) now. I checked all my cables and I think they’re all connected the same way as the ones with my old power. Does anyone have any ideas what might happen to my D drive now and how can I get it out again?

    Thanks beforehand.

    Check that the ribbon cable to the CD is firmly attached at both ends.

    thanks, sparrow. I checked all the cables again and found that there was indeed a cable unplugged. I plugged it in and now the cd drive reappeared! so thanks for your advice. :)
