    I just got back from vacation and found out my laptop is messed up.
    It booted to vista and instantly gave blue screen of death.
    ran gateway repair and fixed that.
    But now all my cd/dvd drives are not showing on my computer.

    it shows in device manager with ! mark.
    Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

    also keep getting error message
    "Readyboost has stopped working"

    Im downloading and updating windows to see if it helps.
