V2 Premier Computers Won't Recognize My CD-ROM

If your V2 Premier desktop computer is not recognizing your CD-ROM drive, you have the jumper on the CD-ROM set incorrectly. Desktop computers use a master/slave system that determines the order in which drives are accessed. If your hard drive is listed as master, and your CD-ROM is also listed as master, your V2 Premier desktop computer will not recognize the CD-ROM drive. You can fix this problem by correctly setting the jumper on the CD-ROM drive.

• 1

  Turn off your V2 Premier computer and remove the power cord.

• 2

  Remove the side of your computer case by removing the screws that secure it.

  Replace the side of your case and your power cable.
