    Go on your desktop and right click My Computer, select Properties, and click on the Device Manager tab. Next, find the words that say "CDROM" and double click it. That is the list of your CD drives. Now double click on either CD drive and select the Settings tab. From there, you may change the CD Drive's letter.

    Hope that helps .

    If you want to do what Matthew suggested, only in VB code: enumerate all the drives on the system, search them to find the CD-ROM drives. Then use Chdrive() in VB to select the another drive, the other CD-Rom.

    Go to VBNET and search on 'drive'. There are several pieces of sample code to show you how to enurate all the CD-Rom drives on a PC.
