I don't believe this is a hardware problem as it happened ages ago with my original sound hardware.

I've seen before these types of CD:
1. Typical CD-R and CD-RW
2. A type of CD-R and CD-RW where the shiny mirror-like (underside) is in DARK color, instead of the typical silvery one.
3. A type of CD-R and CD-RW where the whole piece of CD is BLACK in color, as if it's made with black plastic resins instead of the usual transparent type.

I am looking for the type of CD-R and CD-RW that have the highest level of physical quality (not easily scratched, etc) and highest level of data preservation (data can be kept for very long without losing quality - something like datalifeplus by Verbatim).

Tell me:
1. Of all these different types of CD-R and CD-RW, which one is the best in the 2 qualities I mentioned? Please explain comprehensively why between each of them (this is where I determine who gets the 10 points).
2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the CD speed between 4x to 52x?

Note: I won't give 10 points for simple shortcut answers.

I run windows xp with service pack 2 and just installed a USB 2.0 pci card. Under the device manager everything checks out (drive is correct and device is working properly), but when I plug in a usb device (my camera or gig memory stick) the only thing that happens is my computer freezes.

What is the problem? How do i resolve it?

I have this old computer that uses a serial mouse and it stoped working on me. So i bought a mouse that attaches to the PS/2 port and that should work, but i don't think i have the software installed for it because it didn't work, so i went out and bought an adapter that conects to the serial port, but that still didn't work, any suggestions?
