2 AnswersOther - Yahoo Products1 decade agoWhy is my computer not recognizing my disc drive?
Im almost positive it has something to do with Daemon Tools which I installed to play a pc game. How can I use both the virtual drives created by Daemon tools and be able to pop a disc in and have it be read? I even tried uninstalling Daemon tools but now it just says there is no disc drive at all on my computer :(

1 AnswerCorporations1 decade agoHas anyone noticed this in movies recently?
I've been watching a lot of movies recently and there's two instances in two different movies that reminded me of scenes in other movies. I wonder if they have a term for this in movie making or something.
ex1: In the movie Cop Out, there is a scene where Tracy Morgan and Bruce Willis are in a car and Tracy is begging him for something and the way he keeps on saying "please" sounds like "plaase" it seemed to me like he was imitating the scene from the fifth element when Lilu is asking Bruce Willis to "plaase help"
ex2: In the movie Funny People, there is a part when Adam Sandler is doing stand up comedy from a piano and it sounds distinctly like the Dracula Opera from Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
I'm wondering, these cannot be just coincidence can they? Has anyone else noticed this?
1 AnswerMovies1 decade agoWhat type of cable do i need to buy to hook up my printer to my computer?
I have a basic HP printer that i want to hook up to a computer that i built 1 year ago. I bought an IEEE cable for it and it fits in the printer but i cant find a slot for it on my computer. Theres only two more ports - one im guessing for power and the other may be for an alternate cable to hook to a computer. The port is a square with the right side corners flat and in the middle is a smaller block
