When I have a multiple dick installation - when asked to insert the second CD
- the application doesn't recognize the second CD. If I use explorer and
examine the drive - it still indicates the first cd is installed - the same
files are present.

Any suggestions?

WinXP SP2 1024mb GeForce 6800 GT, Pioneer A03, Iomega Super DVD, Sony
CD-RW-DVD Rom, 4 H/D total 280Gb. Using Belkin ATA - raid controller.

TIA,
EdC

First install a Spellchecker or read your post before sending. LOL

Second which program is it that you are trying to install

I'm re-installing Doom3 right at this moment. (Spellchecker would not have
caught the oops!!) I noticed it after it was posted. It doesn't seem to be
related to a specific application - it's like the cache is not cleared or the
second CD is not read???

Thanks - I'll waatch the grammar more closely.

Either open windows explorer after you've injected the 2nd CD and select
"refresh" with a right-click on the drive letter for that device. Or, maybe
this might work, be sure auto-insert notification is enabled for that
particular device. During installation, some CD/DVD writing software
disables auto-insert notification for all CD/DVD devices, even if they
aren't capable of writing.
