Try booting with a bootable floppy. If this works, the problem is not in the hardware, but in win ME, which would not be a surprise to anyone. If you can use both floppy and CD at the same time, try using a boot floppy with Cd support and then try to access the CD unit. Same here - if this works hardware is very probaly OK. You may have to remove these devices from win ME and let them be re-detected.<br />
<br />
If the simple tests suggested above do not work, however, you may have a hardware problem or something amiss with your BIOS settings.<br />

The question is a bit confusing, but I think I gave the right answer here, the laptop needs the driver first before it supports hot-swap.<br />

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for use at a single location due to its size and power requirements, usually by one person. The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard, disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives and optical disc drives); a keyboard and mouse for input; and computer monitor and printer for output. The case may be oriented horizontally and placed atop a desk or vertically and placed underneath or beside a desk.
