Yes, Dell is fast, once you get them directed to your need. I like recommending them to my clients, family and friends... I haven't been able to find the time in my work schedule to check out an older drive that I know cannot read beyond 650 MBs, but I am wondering if at this point its just a

Hmmm Your 7500 can't be very old, so unless it is a buggy drive (or model edition) it should have no problems reading a full 80 Min./700 MB CD-R. (I would think!) However, keep in mind that a 700 MD CD-R does not pose a problem to an older 650 MB max. drive *until* you exceed the old driv

Hi, T. It may be the drive, but if so, I'm not sure if getting a new one from Dell will fix it. To clarify my problem: * My Dell Inspiron 7500 laptop will not read the Mandrake 9.0 ISOs I have created. * The same CDs work fine on other machines (like my desktop). * My laptop has not had an

I see that your Dell Inspiron 7500 either has a CD-ROM/Floppy Drive or DVD-ROM/Floppy Dive unit in the Media Bay. Assuming that I understand correctly: 1) your CD-ROM (or DVD-ROM) drive is able to read commercially produced CDs flawlessly; 2) you aren't specifically speaking of being able to b

I have attempted to burn the Mandrake 9.0 ISOs several times. In all occasions, the CD was not readable on my Dell Inspiron 7500 laptop. The CD did, however, work on my desktop. When I put the CD in the laptop tray, it seeks for approximately 15 seconds before giving up. I have tried differen
