Hi All,

This is my first post here.

Just bought a PC with a DVD Writer (Sony) and this used to "Autorun" whenever a cd used to be inserted.

Now there is only one drive for the cd's, dvd's etc. This was working fine (did burn a couple of data dvd's too) and since yesterday, the damn thing refuses to work.

When i insert a cd, i can hear it spinning in the drive, the light on the drive flashes, but my computer hangs.

Earlier i used to get a promt as to what to do when the cd was inserted (like open folder to view files, play using windows media player etc).

Now nothing happens. I right clicked on the dvd drive and on auto play options in properties, i confirmed that i should be prompted. No joy !!!!! My comp just hangs and i have to restart it to work. The dvd drive is driving me nuts.

please help.
