Cannot Access Floppy Or Dvd-rom From Command Prompt?

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

Hi, Please help.
I can access both floppy drive and DVD drive from Windows XP Pro GUI. However when I open command prompt and type “cd a:\” or “cd d:\” (or “cd a:” or “cd d:” (d: is my DVD drive letter)), the system types (outputs) “D:\” or “A:\” but the prompt remains as before (last line is still “C:\>”). No error messages. Thus cannot access my floppy or DVD files from command prompt.
I tried typing “cmd /K d:\” into Run utility and opened new command prompt shows DVD well but again, cannot switch to a: or c:
Have some of you resolved similar problem? Thank you in advance.
PS: if it can help, my system and boot partitions are different and I created boot partition already after Windows installation (new active partition K:) and copied the content of the C: drive (files only (like config.sys etc)) to a new active K: partition. Not sure if it can cause the problem.

C:\>cygcheck -v c:\windows\system32\aaaamon.dll | more
c:/windows/system32/aaaamon.dll – os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0
“AAAAMON.dll” v0.0 ts=2001/8/17 15:07
Warning: c:/windows/system32\msvcrt.dll hides C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll
Warning: c:/windows/system32\msvcrt.dll hides C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.3.1\bin\msvcrt.dll
