[dba-Tech] DVD drive in ancient computer

Perhaps the CD you are using is not a bootable CD or has the boot track damaged. Suggest you try another CD.

Said box runs WIndows 7. It's an HP Millenium, must be more than 10 years
old. probably older.

The system will not boot from the CD/DVD drive. When booted from the hard
drive and then I check devices and select the CD/DVD drive in question, it
is working properly. Except that it isn't.

Any suggestion
