I have had it. Yesterday morning I wanted to put a few files on CD, sounds simple enough. Well for some reason the CD/RW drive was being recognized as a regular CD drive. I rebooted the machine and the drive was now recognized as a CD/RW drive.
Last night I was again putting files on a CD. All was going well until the end of the process. When again the drive was no longer being recognized as a CD/RW drive! That I didn't get as it was in the middle of burning a CD. Again I had to reboot, problem solved.
I am losing my patience with this laptop.
