I recently installed a second hard drive in my 233 MHz PentII PC.  My
operating system is Windows 98 (upgrade version from Win 95).  The  new slave
hard drive letter is D: , the original is the master and is still C:, and my
CD-ROM drive is now L:
Since the addition of the new hard drive and the drive letter changes,
several of my CD's won't read and some will.  Even the Win 98 upgrade disc
that I used to upgrade from 95 won't read.   The drive spins them, but then
stops prematurely and displays no label in the "My Computer" window, just L:
 Other discs work just fine and read perfectly.  I bought a new Print Shop
application yesterday and the "install" disc worked fine, but none of the
discs that contain the bulk data like clip files, etc will run.  I'M
BAFFLED!  Do I need to change a setting somewhere?  I'm not familiar enough
with config.sys, autoexec.bat, etc files to know if I need to change
something there.  Can someone please advise me?  Thank you.  Robert King
