Hello Aries and everyone ,
I can only recommend that if anybody has computer problems, join the following forum

http://www.techsupportforum.com/

The free registration is easy and assistance is also free. The experts will guide you through step by step to solve your problem. I've seen them fix some real humdingers. I don't consider myself a greenhorn in the computer department but I am forever learning from these guys and gathering useful information. The site also has many neat diagnosis tools for checking out such hardware as mainboard, cpu etc and even the varying system voltages.

Hi there.

If you want to burn cd's or dvd's use a proper burning software package, like nero, or ez cd/dvd creator, microsoft sucks in everything they do, the only reason we all have windows it is because it is the most compatible o.s., if there was something better that would run all my apps i'd switch in a heartbeat.

PS. I use nero and i have burned over 1000 cd's & dvd's with very few bad copies and fewer problems.

But (THIS IS IMPORTANT) when you burn cd's or dvd's burn them slower than the max disk speed and the max drive speed, also when burning DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE WITH YOUR COMPUTER, the timing of the writing is critical so if the computer is buzy with a higher priority interupt it has to wait for the end of that interupt by that time the timing of the write is screwed up and you have a bad copy.

I kinda over sympiified but essentially corect.

Also some drives are more selective about the brands of cd and dvd they work well with, so if you have more bad results with one brand of disk than others then avoid that band, but that brand of disk may work prefectly well in your freind's drive, so it may not be a quality thing but a compatibility thing.
