    Was That a Demon or a Hobgoblin....?

    Being exposed to a number of vicious tape eating VCRs during your lifetime can bring out such irrational fears as this.

    I would say so. I forgot to add that one of my teachers came in and asked how to plug up a VCR last semester... :X

    Shall I assume "teachers" to be a courtesy term or a misnomer?

    Every single day my mom asks me which drive is the DVD drive on the P4 Northwood PC. I have even wrote DVD on it with sharpie and she still asks.

    As for the VCR teacher, it is a misnomer. She simply does not teach us doodley-squat. She gives us tutorials (she "teaches" CAD, using Solidworks and Chief Architect, I use SW) and simple projects. We have to learn ourselves, and I happen to be the best in my class. I have to teach the students, along with showing Mrs. ***** how to rotate the view in SW. I even had to show her how to insert threads....

    As for the DVD thing, don't worry, you'll survive. I have had my dad ask me every day how to defragment.....

    until I placed a shortcut on the desktop. Place a large piece of white/black paper over the drive with big letters saying >>This is the DVD DRIVE!!!!!<<....

    Replace the other drive with a DVD drive and then it won't make any difference. The savings in aggravation will more than offset the small cost. :)

    What's Bottlenecking My Computer...? You Are, A******....!

    But.....,you'd still have to know the drive letter to allow you to access it. From the sound of this thread, that might prove too formidable as well.

    Riiight. I didn't even think about that. Maybe remove the other drive? That would be totally free. :p
