I recently reformatted and now my computer doesn't detect my Diablo 2 / Diablo 2 LoD, Printer disks at all and detects my HP Recovery Disks (3 of them) as blank 4.38GB disks.
How do I fix this?

You should try downloading the drivers for your system.

Driver Detective shows what outdated drivers you have. If you buy it, it updates them for you. The free version only shows which drivers are outdated/not there and what is installed.

You can google the needed drivers if it finds them.

Drivers are not needed for optical drives, the last time drivers where ever used was DOS, even Windows 95 will automatically detect it.

Go to device manager, uninstall your optical drives, restart the system and try again.

If that does not work go to disk management and change the optical drive letter and see if that will work.

Uhh.
So I went to Device Manager, uninstalled it, then restarted and now it re-installed the driver software, and it still doesn't work.
