Hey!
I'm running in to some problems when being forced to do a repair or possible reinstall of windows, and my COMBO drive refuses to read CD:s. It won't read CD-R:s nor Factory CD:s like my Windows XP. But it DOES read DVD disks.
My windows is having a strange problem by not loading the system services by any means, and I was thinking of trying to do a repair. But the computer (laptop F&S Amilo-A) can't boot from the disk saying it cannot find Operating System. I've tried tweaking BIOS not to find the HDD (does find combo-drive on POST) and cleaning the lens, but nothing seems to help.
Is this possibly a hardware failure? It seems very strange that the drive would be able to read one, but not the other?
Any Tips&Tricks anyone? Cheers! - Petter
