Windows XP Pro, Pen 4
I am trying to instal an BenQ 52x32x52 CD-RW driver but windows reports "New
Hardware Found" but then can not find a driver for it buy searching itself,
the Internet or Win XP CD. Now it also started doing the same thing for the
old CD-ROM drive which was performing normally.
First I connected on secondary channel as Slave and CD-ROM as Master. I
tried the CD-RW as Master all by itself. Then I CD-changed CD-RW as Master
and CD-ROM as slave, both on the Secondary channel.
In Windows Explorer both are listed and I can read the files stored on CDs.
In Device Manager they are both listed as "... working OK". CD-ROM slave
location is shown as 1(1) but the location for CD-RW is shown as 0(0), same
as the HDD. I would expect it to be 0(1). Am I right?
What can I do to stop Windows finding a "New Hardware" everytime I switch
on, and is the "location" data correct, if not what can I do to change it?
