Lost disk drive?

[Kent]

I recently set up a user account for my wife simply by going to control panel, then user accounts using windows xp pro.  I listed her as administrator also.  However, when I am logged off and she is logged on, the computer will not recognize the dvd drive or cd drive.  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Find them in Device Manager using her account. Right click both of them and select "Remove".

Re-boot into her account and Windows should automatically re-install them.

If this doesn't work you'll have to sniff around in Group Policy settings under your account and make sure they are enabled for her account...

Thank you very much.  The uninstall/reboot did the trick.  I really appreciate it and so does the missus.
