    dvd driver issues!?

    Windows is asking me for a driver, for my pinneer 109 dvdr. It used to work fine, then stoped working about a month ago and i dont know why

    I can only think some kind of rootkit/dodgy copy protection software - but the only thing installed around the time it happened was quake4 demo.

    Im thinking i will need to reinstall to get this fixed, I hope not...




    I noticed it a few months ago when drive wasnt showing in explorer (and still isnt). it was showing in device manager like it is now.. i clicked uninstall but didnt change anything on next restart,,,

    nice to see ms sites stilll dont work properly in firefox... and somehow my IE is buggered so i cant select text by dragging mouse

    fixed! the problem was cdrom.inf was missing, which is probably what the system file was, which chkdsk found a few months ago... copyed it over from other pc and it works
