Need assistance on removing duplicate CD-Drive.

    Just recently, I noticed that my "CD-Drive (D: )" has been duplicated to "CD-Drive (F: )". Whenever I try to play one of my games, it loads up on both of the drives (Because it's one CD-Rom Drive, but loaded two times), and I fear it's what is preventing me from playing said game.

    How do I go about removing this alternate drive (it also does not show up in the device manager)?

    Edit: Based on what I've seen, I have not run Daemon Tools or any CD Cloning devices.

    Hi

    What Windows Version?


    Pop into Disk Managment and is this extra drive F: listed? (drive managment is found in Control Panel > Admin Tools)

    Also in Device Manager click View > Show Hidden Devices and in the DVD/CD rom drives section are their any greyed out listings for a device?
