Subject: [PCBUILD] Missing Drives
> I have had a sporadic problem for 3 months on this system. (700MHZ Celeron
370, 384Mb RAM, 20GBt HD, CD-ROM, CD-RW:-Win98SE)
> One, or other, or both of the cd drives disappear from the My Computer
panel.
> If I wriggled the IDE cables, they came back, so I replaced the cables
with the round sort.
> All was ok for a week or two, then, LO! my E drive wasn't there.
> I switched off and LO!, the E drive had gone, but the D drive was back. I
wiggled the new cables and LO! they are both back.

> Do IDE sockets give trouble? Never heard of it.

re-starts that alter something.

> This isn't the first time I have come to a forum with this problem but
everybody thought it was the cables.
