Your computer is confused on what it is. You said you saved it to your hard drive. What do you mean by that and maybe I can assist you.

Welcome to Second Life Answers, micalj.

I haven't heard of this issue, with regard to Second Life before. However, I have a Dell computer also, but running with Windows Vista, and I have issues with my DVD driver frequently.  When I get the "there is no disk in drive" message, it usually happens after a Windows Update has caused some kind of conflict in my system.

Silly question here, but are you actually trying to save something to a disk?

Keep this thread up to date please.

Is it possible that you have more than one hard drive in your computer?  The normal path that any viewer follows is a path on C: drive.  If you changed that to, say driver D: (or whatever drive you second drive is designated) the program should pick up the change.........it sounds as if it did not.  Or maybe you installed SL on some removable media (like a memory stick).........that must be in your computer for the viewer to work.

I had an issue on my Mac a while back where I got an error message because I installed the viewer from another user account than the one I use when logging in to SL. Could it be a similar issue in this case? Perhaps some issue with user access level (admin or regular user rights)? (I'm not a windows user, so I'm just guessing...)
