If your cd shows up in dos and in your boot, and you have a ! mark on Ide controller singl fifo. I think you may have the NYB boot sector virus. I just fixed a computer with the exact same problem last week. First run Mcaffee or another virus scan to confirm virus. Then boot with a known good boot disk that is write protected. Then type fdisk/mbr and your cd will be back. The way you get this virus is by booting with a infected boot disk. Good Luck!
