Acer 56x CD-ROM drive and Windows XP
By Pasty - usenet poster
Does anybody know where I can find an updated Windows XP driver for my Acer
56x (type 656A) drive. I have tried to look at
http://www.benq.co.uk/ServiceA ndSupport/Drivers/drivers.cfm? product=2... -
but it does not seem to work under Windows XP?
Thanks...

It should not need a driver other than the generic ones that come with
Windows XP.
What sort of problems are you having with this drive?
Also, do you have a Windows 98 or Windows Me startup disk available? If
so, use it to boot the computer and choose the CDROM support option. If
the drive is not recognized or is not usable that way then there is a
problem with the drive itself or with the cables and/or jumper settings.
Good luck
