    I don't know what I did or what's going on. But first off I rarely EVER use my disk drive I mean we're just at that stage/day and age where I download all of my software/games or install them via USB or something like that.

    However, I do use my disk drive to reinstall windows and that works fine when i do that, so yes my disk drive can read disks. But it won't burn my ISO of a windows 7 I got from my MSSDNA (Stands for Microsoft Software Share something....) Anyways the ISO is good and the blank disk is good, because when I moved all of it over to my R3 system it burns fine.However, I'm worried now because my R2 system is unable to do this now. What do you think is going on with it? :confused: I like my R2 system alot still, even more then that plasticy rubbery R3
