The problem is this .
My combo DVD/CD drive will not start after
a shutdown .
I can get it to start by running "sfc /scannow".
After "sfc" the unit will read DVD's, CD's and burn .
I have done everything I can think of to repair the
problem ... except a clean install of XP . Which
I'm trying to avoid like the plague .
Deleted drivers ... both in storage as well as USB
and several other distantly related things . Deleted
most drivers
I have used a different drive and it displays much the
same response .
No error messages.
Running the Quick(?) install disks
finds the unit every time when the machine
boots.
Any new suggestions would be appreciated .
