just picked up a refurb'd dell c600 with toshiba sd-c2502 dvd drive in it. kids played movies on it in back seat while on vacation last week. came with win98 installed, but no cd's. did load word and few others off cd's when first arrived. fri nite, ran win98 update off ms website and had over 40 updates to download. decided yest to purchase a full copy of xp and replace 98 since i have no reload cd. put xp cd in this morn, autoplay doesn't run it, and click d: in my computer prompts a 'device not ready screen. tried few other cd's and same screen. but can put in a dvd movie and will auto launch and run fine.
system shows no conflicts, and driver update says i am running most current driver.
any feedback from one of you experts to a 'knows just enough to be dangerous' |
