We instructed the kids to get rid of any of their files on the computer that were no longer required. However, they appear to have wiped off Drive D and E which are the CD Rom drives!!! (This is what hubby tells me).
Not sure what's going on there, but I don't think you can delete them even if you wanted to.
Try sticking a CD into your CD ROM drive. An autoboot window should appear. Open up Windows Explorer, look through your list of drives, and presumably your CD drive should now appear.
