Any COMPAQ Guru's Out There - Help

[mransom]

This CD-rom has been in the computer since 1997. I am just hoping that it is not gone. I can't buy a new one right now and it is my husbands computer and he needs the CD-Rom. He deals with a lot of music stuff.

have you loaded the drivers for it??
www.bootdisk.com
download the win95 bootdisk with cd-rom drivers.

I have installed the correct drivers.

We connected the CD_ROM drive to another computer and it does not work there either. On the other computer it just shows that there is nothing on the CDs.

I have just about decided that this CD drive is dead.

After all this I agree that CDROM has seen it's better days. Time to let it go to CDROM Heaven.
