I'm having the same trouble? I'm also really bad with this thing. I might have to try things several times to get it right.

:flowers:

No and no. Where's Device Manager and what sound driver? Is this a program? See, this gets the best of me cause I don't understand most things about it. Sorry for being so slow.

O.K. I found device manager, went to dvd/cd-rom devices-properties,clicked that on, up pops general, there's no enable digital cd audio for this computer? No O.K. to click or nothing? HELP! I think I disabled this about a month ago trying to turn off a virus I still clearly have and could not figure out how to undo what I had done.

There was no error number? It just said right before it finished downloading," An Error has acured would you like to send a report?" I hit send, then it said exit? I hit exit. It's making me crazy. I know I got this virus from LimeWire and I bought their music. Waiting to hear from you. P.S. I have taken LimeWire off my computer.

Got it. Hey Mark, I ain't got a clue what to do with this hotfix? There's all kinds of words that I don't understand? There's nothing to click on in my e-mail to help me? Where it says there's support it says to copy and paste to my browser? I did'nt know I had a browser? What is this? Anyways, I'm at a stand still? Waiting for you.

Just wanna say I'm sorry for not understanding all this computer stuff. I'm gonna get a new tower next month. After that we'll see what's up. It's all a bit too much for me.
