When did this start? What are you using for virus/spyware protection? When was Windows loaded on this machine? What other problems? Do you do disk cleanups and defraging? What files are you having problems with - audio CD's, or what? More details about the hardware would be helpful.

windows was loaded sometime during 2003 i have recieved all the updates, i went to the web-site and it said there were no avaliable updates at this time, i don.t have problems with no other files, the cdr/dvd/rw works fine when you are burning cd,s no problems, it is just when you start playing them back on this pc you get that skippinng, start/ stop. breaking up type of playback, but that is not recorded in the cd or dvd you are burning, when i take the cd or dvd that i recently burned and put it on my cd- player there is no skipping, or start/ stopping as i am typing this reply i am getting a 1-second delay in the letters appearing on the screen.

When you reloaded Windows after replacing the drive did you load the drivers from the Dell site (updated) or off the Drivers CD?

If you are using XP.
I would try a reinstall of the audio drivers. Also, check for running processes in Device manager and also use the online scanner at www.trendmicro.com
