Hi Ed, Yes, we got an external dvd drive and I can read the disc, I just can't boot from it. The disc is ok.

Recently I had two regular CDR drives that went bad and couldn't read the CD. I placed the CD in another PC and the CD was readable and changing out the CDR drive did the trick. Those CD drives were probably a couple years of age. Ed Lisa Schnepf wrote: >Hi Clint, > > Sorry - I meant master as far as the two cd rom drives.
