I have two computers, and two hard drives. In the first computer, I needed to upgrade the HD to 15gb and remove my 3gb drive. However, the 3gb drive is still fully loaded with Windows and I would like to use it in my "parts" pc. (Parts pc = computer that is never 100%, parts are always being added and removed to make other computers better).
So I pop the 3gb into my second computer and everything seems to work ok, but in Windows the two CD drives are not being displayed. I know they are in installed correct because the computer BIOS found them and the Windows boot floppy w/cd support acknowledges them. So my question is now how to get them recognized in the GUI version of Windows? I have tried to copy the driver files from the boot disk and use the CD section of the config.sys copied to the main Windows version, that didn't work. I think part of the problem is that the first computer had a dvd player/cd burner drive which I believe had it own drivers. So what I want to know is how to get those default drivers back in place so I can use my two standard cd drives. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
