72498 2002-08-19 21:29:00 I had to reformat my hard drive last week after a virus wiped it I've got most of my programs back but I my CD writer isn't working. When I first got the Computer it had a CD ROM which I got removed and replaced with a CD RW. The reformatting has returned much of my computer to its original shop state.

When I try to burn a CD it tells me to insert a CD even though there is already one in there. I get get information off some commercial CD's but nothing onto the blank ones I have. What can I do?

72499 2002-08-19 22:11:00 you may need to find the correct driver for the cdrw try to get windows to auto detect it thru new hardware .
I personally use GoBack that allows me to go back in time 2 to 3 days to a setting that worked prior to a virus or bad installation welcome to contact me if you need it tennisplayer43 at hotmail dot com
