Sorry to start this thread again, but I noticed that the last guy who posted before me was in April, and had no reply... so I'm desperate for anyone to help.

My laptop CD/DVD drive has stopped working, and no longer appears on "My Computer." Last time this happened, it was under warantee, and Dell fixed it. now they want to charge me. I followed the Windows Guided Help - did fine until it said to delete the upper and lower filters; they are already gone, apparently. There was another link cited to CastleCops.com, but it is down.

Please help - this is for my classroom, and I have a bevy of restless sixth graders who will rend my flesh if I don't get back into being "Ms. Tech-Fluent Teacher" soon!
