Thinkpad 390E - CD drive not shown in Win Explorer - W98

    Hello --

    Trying to tune up my daughter's laptop, I discovered that the CD drive does
    not show up.

    I want to install 98SE, but need the CD ROM to be working before I can do
    it.

    I have upgraded the bios to latest version.

    Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this, or make the CD drive visible?

    Thanks for any help.
