CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive Problem

Well..i had this problem for a while now. And im getting sick of it now. This drive is messed up. IT wont autorun anything, it doesnt refresh even tho i switch to a different CD. And at some programs , such as CD-maker, it wont detect any writting speed. Any1 solve this issue?

assuming you have xp................

what if you.........

start--my comp--right click the troublesome drive--properties--autoplay(tab) and select then action you want for each event.

on the hardware tab select your device from the list then click on the properties button and make sure that "enable cd playback" is selected............



never heard of cd maker. my advice would be get nero............
