If you had XP as an OS I'd say use "system restore" to go back to a time before the installations, but that isn't the case.  The first thing I'd try is to go to device manager and remove your Sony DVD/CD burner.  Then turn off your computer, open the case and disconnect it.  Do a restart so as to complete the removal of the Sony, then turn off the computer and reconnect the drive before starting it up again. Win 98 will find it and reinstall it from scratch.  If it still won't work then there is something left over from one of those programs that conflicts with the drive.  Finding that will be a much bigger project.

Subject: [PCBUILD] No Detection of Devices on Computer


Hi,

I enjoy your site very much.  It is very informative.  Just recently I installed
and ran these two software packages: VSO Inspector and SANDRAPRO 2001.
Everything was working fine before I installed these applications.  Now when I
want to burn anything, CD or DVD, the software in my computer doesn't recognize
or cannot detect my Sony CD/DVD burner.  I uninstalled both packages and I am
still faced with the same problem.  My computer is a Compaq Deskpro EN; Pentium
III 733Mhz; Windows 98SE; Sony DVD RW DW-D22A.  I'll be very grateful for your
help as I am totally stumped for solutions.
