Gudday all, I recently purchased a Compaq CQ5110F desktop. I did so for two reasons. First, PC Mag gave it an Editor's Choice tag for entry level desktops and two, I have a certain brand loyalty, having worked for Compaq tech support for 6 years. The unit also seemed to offer a lot for...

I replaced the CD drive in my Presario 5000T desktop yesterday with a Philips DVD8301/44 I got from a friend without documentation or box. From what I can find on Google it should read both CDs and DVDs. However, it reads only DVDs. This happens under both Windows XP Home and Ubuntu Linux 7.10....

If brave or knowledgeable, can...
