Hi All,

I recently purchased a new PC running Windows Vista. It has an LG DVD burner drive. After 2 weeks it suddenly stopped reading CDs but will still read DVDs. The advice from the manufacturer is to clear the hard disk and reinstall. This has also been suggested by a local PC shop as apparently the registry can get corrupted (?). Something to do with Windows losing the drivers apparently. Has anyone experienced this ? Anyone got a simpler solution ?

Kind Regards
