Default 2-CD Drives

Now it's happening on my other computer. Through Windows Explorer it shows
2-CD Drives. Actually as shown below:
CD Drive (F)
DVD-RW (G)

The DVD-RW is some somthing in RAM because I can drag files to it as if it
was just a Harddrive (when no CD or DVD in place). However, when I do that,
it tells me that the files are in queue to be written to a disk.

I don't have any software on this computer for writing files to a disc. I
did install the UDF Reader but I uninstalled it when I thought it was
causing the RAM Drive to appear. I don't like the two drives showing. One
reason is that I don't have a way to change the letter of the drive. I
would like help in that area because my drive is partitioned into 3-drives.
The CD Drives are split in the middle. If I have to display both drives, I
would at least want them at the bottom... when viewing with Windows
explorer.

The XP Drive manager does not see the RAM DRive and neither does Acronis
Disk Director. So I don't know how to change the letter of the drive.

Thanks

What virtual CD/DVD drive software do you still have installed?

None that I know of. I installed UDF Reader but uninstalled to when this
happened. Now that it is uninstalled, I still show 2-drives. I don't have
any CD or DVD Writing software on this computer.
