Thanks, Joel; this pointed me in the right direction. I tried to
change the drive letter & received the following error message:
"The CD-ROM cannot be locked for exclusive use. Please check to
see if some applications are currently accessing the drive. If so,
close them and try again."
I closed all apps, including system tray items from the start-up
folder. The culprit seems to have been FlexiCD from the Microsoft
Powertoys collection; once removed from start-up, the K: cd drive
contents show in NT explorer. Even when the drive is renamed to Z:,
FlexiCD prevents the drive opening if FlexiCD was in start-up.
I don't know if others are using FlexiCD successfully, but I now
see this is a matter for PC-MS or PC-SOFT.
Thanks so much! This was a real annoyance.
