CD-RW status glowing red
I woke this morning and found my CD-RW drive hadc a red glowing status
light. Fow a while the computer would not even register the E drive was even there. It now shows the CD drive as present, but it will not read CD's. Does this mean that the drive needs to be replaced? I have a Presario 5100CA with a Phillips CDD 4801 CD-RW drive. Also, I have been attacked by Trojans an awful lot lately...the fire wall has worked. pops |

The Philips drive was prooblematical. I had to replace one in my 4090US
Presario. I'd probably replace it. As for the trojans, watch those e-mail attachments. That's how most of them get to you. HH "Papatom" wrote in message ...
