I need an internal DVD drive for my spare computer. How much should i spend? I only need a reader but should i get a writer anyway. I heard that sony drives were good. I saw this one on newegg for $35.

I have a gaming joystick that has a "top hat" that could be configured nicely into a game I play.
Keyboard strokes and macros can be assigned to all of the buttons including the top hat. IE: move forward is the letter "E"... shooting a weapon can be configured to fire a burst of five with a macro, and then assigning it to a key.

I need to know if there are any keyboard strokes (shift/alt/^) as an example which would emulate the movement of a mouse. No sideways movement is needed (but would be neat)... but I definitely want to find forward backward left right.

Thanks!!!

PS: Keyboard mouse wouldn't work because the mouse must function during the game for other movements and activities. This a PC.

Hi all!!About 2 days ago I bought a Albatron 7600 GT graphics card, i installed it and tried to see how it would perform with some games..i tried Hitman:Blood money, Oblivion, NFS:Most wanted, Fear...although generally i was satisfied with it's performance i couldn't help but notice that there were small lock-ups when the "game action" was too much, also i checked the temp of the GPU and it was 70 degrees Celcius!! The idling temp was 65 degrees!! Is that normal?? I must admit that the air flow in my PC case isn't that good.. (only one fan for the case)..also since I'm in a warm country (Greece) and it's summer we got high temps, about 33*C, can this affect the GPU temp? what should I do? many thanks in advance!

I have an Emachines T6212 and for some odd reason, the Cd burner stopped working. It is a TSST-CORP, model unknown. I recently put in a new drive connector cable, but that does not help. It can read CD and DVD fine, but iTunes and other burning apps lock up when I try to burn. Please help!

My husband (MR. KNOW-IT-ALL) recently installed a DVD?RW drive in our CPU, he took the old CD/DVD drive out and put the new one in its place and put the old CD/DVD drive in a slot below it. Now whenever we turn the computer on, the old drive keeps opening and closing on its own. The only way to get it to stop is to hold it shut, no joke!
Also the new DVD/RW drive has a tendency to crash every now and then.
Could anyone tell me what could be causing this and how to fix it. Thanks very much.

I run Windows XP Professional. I have have lost my drives for my cd-r and cd-rom. I have tried device manager, uninstall, add new hardware. In my computer it does not shows drives e or d. I have two 80g hard drives each are partition into 2 drives. I think I need the ms dos command to load the drives, not sure though.
