    well, when i 1st built my computer the drive worked but now for some reason it doesnt work, this is what happens.. i put the cd in the DVD-RW drive and i heard it reading the disc.. then it just stops trying to read and then i hear a beep... then 10 seconds later i hear another beep and nothing opens or anything, also in My Computer, the drive is there but it says the cd i put in isnt read.

    i tryed an audio cd and the cd to my webcam and they work fine.. the cd that doesnt work is the cd that comes with my linksys wireless g router.. and i need that to fix my internet problem.. shessh one problem after another :rolleyes: can anyone help?

    Have you got another drive you can test the cd in? It could always be a faulty cd....
