    Hi Martinlw. Have u tried reinstalling the driver for the cd burner? Also, see if u can take out the cd burner and connect it again to the pc again and then run the 'add new hardware' wizard once the pc has booted up. regards from kiyhkuj.

    Hi,Well i tried all what you said but its still not being found.I presume the Samsung sc-152a is a burner, because i bought the computer from an office,i wondered if it was just a writer. Regards Martin

    Samsung sc-152a is NOT a burner. It is just a CDROM

    CD writers usually have a R/W embossed on the outside tray door, along with the usual Compact Disc symbol

    Only the Compact Disc symbol is on CDROMs
