Hi,
My CD-rom drive stopped working after a year of no problems, it is recognized - no conflicts or whatsoever, but it does not do anything - does not recognize CD's blank or recorded, music or data. I tried reinstalling the system software to its original state - still did not work. I connected a cd/dvd external drive that worked for a couple of days and then it too did the same thing. I am running XP Home
Makes me think it is not really the drives.
pls help
