The internal DVD burner of my desktop computer has stopped working. When I place any kind of disc (DVD, CD, music or data) in, the computer asks me to insert a disc. I have reason to believe this is a hardware problem. The manufacturer, however, says they can not be sure that it is not a software problem, that one or more of my Windows files could be corrupted. They say if I send the computer in for service the first thing they will do is reformat the hard disk. To me this is like shooting the side of a barn with a cannon. I don't particularly want to do that. What I thought I would do instead is purchase an inexpensive external DVD burner and see if that solves the problem. Does this make sense to you or am I barking up the wrong tree so to speak?

I recently had to reinstall windows xp sp2(bootleg w/key) due to a virus. I cleared my C drive and did a fresh install. but i didnt reformat my hard drive. we' ll get back to that. once installation started it came across a driver.cab error, i proceeded to install skipping these files. now that installation was complete i no longer have sound, no volume control or mixer devices. audio drivers show working properly but i get a "error streamci.dll message" . In device manager the volume control is grayed out. Ive tried everything known to man. will a stored bought sound card come with the necessary mixer devices that windows xp sp provide? or do i need to just break down and buy a legal copy of windows Xp? I also read that some files may get corrupted due to spyware in plug in play, should i have reformatted my harddrive before I did my installation? please help. no sound, no happy:(
