"device in the system modular bay cannot be identified"

I have a Dell Latitude CPi Notebook.

I also have a problem with the modular bay when the CD Rom is inserted. The error message I get is: "device in the system modular bay cannot be identified".

The CD Rom works fine in ANOTHER Dell Latitude notebook so there is no defect with the CD Rom. I then I tested the modular bay by inserting a 3.25 floppy drive, it WORKS just FINE. So the modular bay works but NOT WITH a CD Rom. I then tried a DIFFERENT CD Rom drive in the modular bay and that doesn't work. Does anyone have a solution to this?

Your advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi Spider Man,
I am afraid you have found yourself in the wrong conference my friend. You should post this in one of the Latitude conferences, however the following Dell article on "Clearing the NVRAM for a Latitude notebook" may work;


Seasons Greetings!




God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do and the eyesight to tell the
difference.

Thanks a bunch.  I will give that a try first thing in the morning.

Have a great XMas Holiday.
