| | Virtual Drive makes physical drive disappear Every time I place a virtual DVD drive on my computer it makes my physical drive disappear in My Computer AND Device Manager :/. Device Manager then instead just sees the Virtual Drive.. I've tried to do that upper/lower filter to no avail considering I don't have those options when I have a virtual drive. The only way for me to make it appear in My Computer again is to unplug the SATA cable when the computer is off and reinsert in a different slot. Anyone know how to fix this issue considering unplugging and replugging shouldn't be answer  ? |

| | What virtualization program are you using? It sounds like a program error, rather than a Windows error. Virtual Clone Drive, and MagicDisc are both free programs. |
