You need to use a windows 98 bootdisk to get cdrom access. The win95 bootdisk doesn't have the drivers necessary for the cdrom drive to work....
Newt might be right about it being a hardware problem but the fact that you wiped things clean and started over and mangaged to get rid of the...
You could be right Pete. All I know is that I've had mine disabled for nearly 2 years and have never missed it. Different strokes for different...
That's true if you want to use XP's software for burning CD's but it not necessary to have it running if you're using 3rd party software. I just...
Now that I re-read your post I realize I sort of goofed. I read it to fast the first time and didn't realize it was a DVD burner. Are you trying...
Do you have XP's built in cd burning software enabled on the drive? If so, try disabling it for that drive. Open My Computer, right click on the...
Good! I was wondering if maybe you were misunderstanding. No, not stupid, you just didn't know. There's a big difference. I would guess that...

The virus may be what's causing the system restore problems. If so, charlesvar's suggestion is the way to go. Even if this is not what's...
I'm with Johanna. Do the deed and let us know how it turns out for you.
My guess would be that if you're using the free for a year option, you won't be eligible to upgrade until you re-subscribe. This is just a guess...
As far as I know, whenever you re-subcribe to Etrust you are eligible to upgrade to the newest version. I've been using it a long time now and...
If you want to use Paint to crop a picture, select the area you want to keep and then click edit>copy to. In the save window that opens, give it...
You're welcome! ;)
You can use TweakUI to do it. Run TweakUI and click on "logon" in the list in the left pane.
The file system really has nothing to do with it. If you have XP on a Fat32 partition it can see the NTFS partitions just fine. If you were to...
Separate names with a comma.
