| It'a a machine that's what happens....they either work or they dont......if it's a dead drive and it's a desktop dont even think about fixing the drive it'd be bad economics you jst rip it out and replace it cost about $50 at most for a dvd writer drive......very easy to replace |

| Go into start/run type regedit.
If you can get into the registry it's possibly the drive.If you can't and that's what happened to me along with the cd icon dissappearing it's a relative easy fix.Run hijackthis and save a log file.
But before the Trademe gestapo jump on me I want to make it clear "That's what happened to me" period. |
