Shut up, Cheese.
Um. Is it scratched to shit? Or is it just not working? Most CD-R's have a life of about 4 years, if I remember correctly.

I'm talking 'bout the actually drive, the thing you put the CD in...

it could be that it burned out (died) or the connections got loose and the system isnt detecting it. Shut down the system, check the connecitons then boot back up. if its still not showing, check in device manager. it might require a system restore unless its that nasty worm thats been disabling task manager, ie explorer/firefox and roms.

If it is dead, they're like 20 bucks at Newegg so it's no big deal.

-he was probably saying that because it was an acident-
buy a new one. i think they're super ez to install, i think they just plug in or something.

Let this be a lesson to all, when a comp is not in use or downloading something, shut it down, let it rest, let it sit down somewhere, it'll do it a world of good, child... i was meaning for this to be attached to my post above, but i as distracted by responsibilities, my bad |
