    Ha, ya that's my thread. Since then my disk drive has begun to make funny noises and slow down. Basically dell told me that until it dies and or my diagnostics fail and windows tells me it doesnt work, there isn't much I can do. Thanks Dell!

    that means there is only one thing left to do.
    take out the drive and accidentally take a hammer to it.

    try reinstalling the driver?
