Hey guys, I run Windows XP Pro on a PIII 550 with 256 RAM, ATI Radeon 7200 64MB SDR Video RAM, ASUS DVD-E616 and a Cicero 12x8x32 CD-RW. Here is my problem...every now and then I'll boot my PC and my 2 CD-ROM drives disappear....it's like there aren't there....If I reboot everything is fine...... Also, if I load like outlook the PC will freeze for a second....and I lose the 2 CD-ROM's anyway...or with anything that freezes upon loading for that matter... Anyone got any suggestions? I was thinking power supply but I might be wrong.....any suggestions? Thanks in advance Dave
