cd-rw not accessible, incorrect function??
I have a memorex cd-rw 4224. an oldie but a goodie. The latest problem is that when I try to read from it I get the error message that it's not accessible , incorrect funciton. I have tried rebooting, reinstalling, new drivers, even kicking.
The drive icon appears in "my computer" and the device manager says it's working perfectly. I'm running Win 2K.
Any ideas???

Could be similar to a problem that I've had (listed it in another thread). Have you loaded antivirus software lately like Norton Internet Security. If you have try deleting it and rebooting PC, & see if your cd-rw works then.

Hi Steve...How would you go about switching from a secondary master to a secondary slave? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
