Hi,
have you tried booting a bootable cd on it ?

the results of my trying again mounting the cdrom...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist

prob just take it in and see if can get it looked at under warranty but any further suggestions appreciated...

thanks

Try using Konqueror or Nautilus to mount or play the disks and see if
it works.

Or in console 'mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom' etc.

      
Cheers, gave that a stab and this was the result -

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
mount: mount point /mnt/cdrom does not exist
