My cd-rom is detecting in the bios but not in windows,i have had this happen to me more than once when doing a clean install, but have never been able to find a way to fix the problem or find out what is causeing it.
The os is windows me,
the specs are amd k-6 550mhz, 256 megs ram ,20gig drive,everything onboard. i have all the proper drivers installed.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Have you tried another IDE cable?

My post is right below yours.
If things went crazy when you enabled DMA the problems could be similar.
Read my thread and then check the knowledge base for ME.
