I have an Emachines desktop currently with a 3
button wheel mouse. Friend gave me a Dell 3 button optical USB. Can I just unplug the old and
plug in the new? Turn off computer? Install with the wizard? Are they even compatible?
Thank You in advance!!!!!!

Every time that I place a CD in my CD-rom drive on my Dell, the CD ends up becoming scratched up and unreadable. Some of these are brand new CDs. I have had it for a year, but this has recently started occurring. Why is this happening?

I've been playing civilization IV this week, and the computer will randomly lock up and freeze after playing for awhile. I think it may have something to do with the video card, beacuse the temperature was at least 65 degress Celcius when my computer rebooted.

x800 xt AGP ATI platinum 256mb

I'm considering picking up one of those Artic Cooler silent fan kits to replace the stock fan that ATI puts on.

Before I buy this, do you think the video card overheating is why my game is crashing?

My combo drive is reading the CDs, writing the RCDs and rewriting the RWCDs but not playing DVDs. I have checked the wires or cables or whatever they called etc and checked the software, It is installed. I uninstalled it and installed again but no use. Then I format the whole hard disc but no use. Then I updated the software but no use. I checked it and set it again. The software tells that I am using Combo Drive but in My Computer in the Device Manager it tells that I am using CD ROM. The name of the company of my Combo Drive is LG Electronics.

I've read several articles that LightScribe may be launching full-colour labelling systems in the near future instead of the current grayscale ones.

If that happens, will they be changing the lightscribe hardware(the burner) or the type of CD so that the labels will be in full colour?

Most importantly, if I own a LightScribe Burner now, do I have to purchase a new LightScribe burner to label my CDs in full colour or do I just have to buy new LightScribe CDs that I can use in my current LightScribe Burner to produce full colour labels?

Whats the possibility?

Do help me out. Thanks in advance!
