Title: Big mistake Post by: Indestructable on July 16, 2006, 08:06:13 PM Had a family get together yesterday and one of the kids visiting asked to use my pc, I said yep no problem.
I now have no cd rom reader or DVD reader. Why on earth did I trust my pc I will never know. :dontask: I have no idea what they did, perhaps I have a twiglet in the drive, but after spending hours trying to fix it I have given up for a while. If only Marty Mcfly was around I would ask him to take me back 24 hours. :D Title: Re: Big mistake Post by: mikkyT on July 16, 2006, 08:09:21 PM Is it a software problem or have they buggered the drives?

I'm crap with computers but doesn't system restore do that? Title: Re: Big mistake Post by: Indestructable on July 16, 2006, 09:11:31 PM Yeah tried restore but no luck. My pc came with some help function, but it will not work as i have changed to xp. I am on to them to see if they can help. It is doing my head in. ::)

It may not work but it's worth a bash. Title: Re: Big mistake Post by: Colchester Kev on July 16, 2006, 09:15:00 PM Go round to the guilty childs house and piss on his lego .... it wont make your pc work, but it will make you feel better :D :D

I joined a forum for techies and one of the bod's came up with the answer straight away. i wouldn't pretend to understand what the problem was but I did what he said and deleted a few things and it is now working. ;letsparty; ;letsparty; ;letsparty; |
