Well that's the extent of my useless knowledge...  :)

If it were me, I would try reinstalling my drivers and then hard booting (Shutting computer off for 30 seconds)

Sorry can't be more help.

I cant open this computer. Im not a mechanic but, the CD-roms do work. I think it might be a windows error.

That is most likely your problem, get rid of easy cd creator and use nero 6 it is a much much much better program for burning and related tasks.

Try visiting the Roxio support site for a fix - disappearing drives are a common problem with CD software.

Sauzee,  I tried going to roxio's site but they dont even talk about missing CD-rom drives in there FAQ.

If you have any virtual CD drives get rid of them - that's caused me this problem before
