As a result of google search I am now getting multiple error messages such as; "Disk drive C:/ is unreadable" "RAM memory speed decreased significantly and may cause a system failure" "Hard drive does not correspond to system requests" "Damaged hard drive clusters detected. Private data is at risk." "Hard drive rotational speed exceeds system limits and may cause a system failure." Many more, all of my desktop icons and everything under the start menu has vanished. What would cause this and how will I go about fixing? Thanks, Tim

It's saying my drivers are up to date and are functioning properly.

It is the combo drive but I've never actually burned a DVD so i'm not sure, but I highly doubt it would work at this point. And I apologize for the misconception, i currently running on Windows Vista so proceed if needed to move the thread to that section.

I've always been able to burn CD-r's with no problem, but recently i've been having trouble. The software detects the blank and analyzes each file like normal, but as soon as the "Writing to disk" begins is when i receive the error message saying, "Windows Media Player could not complete burning because the disc is not compatible with your drive. Try inserting a different kind of recordable media or use a disc that supports a write speed that is compatible with your drive." I've previously burned hundreds of discs w/ this computer using the very same brand of blanks so i'm a little confused. First i thought it was the CD-r's maybe a bad batch, so i went out and bought another package from a different brand, no luck. Then i figured it must be WM Player, so I tried I-tunes to no avail. :confused: At this point i'm very frustrated and tired of wasting CD's, some advice is all i ask for. Thanks for reading
