I was using DVD Decrypter to burn an ISO and realised that I had picked the wrong one. I used the abort function and Decrypter continued to run for a while after acknowldging the abort. I then had a quick powercut causing the computer to reboot.

Now the DVD drive won't read any DVDs and is scratching any I put in while making a clicking noise (technical I know!). It appears it is trying to finish off whatever Decrypter was doing when I'd asked it to abort.

I can get CDs to work but only after the drive has clicked a few times and scratched the disks. If I close the disk tray without a disk in it it still makes the clicking noise for a minute as if it is looking for a disk to maul.

How do I stop the drive thinking it has something to finish off (I have rebooted a couple of times)??

I've bought a 30GB Seagate external hard disk 6mth ago. Recently, I've accidentally tripped over the USB cable that attached from my hard disk to my laptop and the cable got unattached from it while my laptop were actually playing some songs from the hard disk. Later when I try to plug back the cable, it couldn't find any files in it. I’ve tried every method, but still fail. I can’t even format it. In the properties of My Computer, says that the file system of this drive is RAW. I’ve also tried many data recovery software but It doesn’t detect this drive at all. I know the best solution is to send this drive to the data recovery companies if I want to get back all my data in it, but the reason I ask here is to get feedback from anyone out there, if you have any instruction of doing the data recovery myself. I also know that doing it myself is risky and may defect the disk even more but I want to give it a try and to learn something new. Please help. Thanks.

Ok,I'm wondering if you need a certain type of agp slot to run a graphics card with GDDR3 memory, and also im thinking of getting the Radeon X1600 pro wich his regular 513mb of memory and then the Sapphire radeon X1600 xt wich has 256mb of GDDR3, and im wondering wich one would be faster, and wich on is actually better for running games with the best frame rate possible
