    I have an ASUS G1S-A1 and I noticed that under My Computer I see a CD Drive and a DVD Drive. If I right click the DVD Drive and select Eject then my DVD Drive pops open. However, with the CD Drive nothing happens. Also, it is not a mounted drive. Anyone know why it is showing up?

    That's odd.. Have you tried looking up it's properties to see what manufactures it claims?

    Device Manager shows two drives:

    HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20L ATA Device
    and
    LH7434F RLF319K SCSI CdRom Device

    The first one is the actual DVD drive I do have and the second one is just another virtual drive I have using DAEMON Tools. So, the E: drive isn't even showing up under device manager.

    EDIT: Found the problem. PowerISO had a mounted drive I was unaware of.
