    If we could figure that out, we'd be sitting on a beach in Maui. A cd-r or cd-rw should work just fine though....Good Luck. Let us know what you find out!!!

    What if I put a little gas over the cd-rom drive...light it...then put the blank dvd-r on top of that?

    We can fix this, but you're gonna need a butter knife, a roll of duct tape, and a car battery, and a small ritual sacrifice will be involved

    [bold]squizzle[/bold] It only works when you modify your CD Burner into a cup holder....

    Then from a cup holder into a DVD burner. :)

    Thanks, Offset! It took me 4 months to piece it together due to budget constraints! It also has a Creative 2 ZS Platinum Pro sound card and Logitech Z680 5.1 Speakers, and a 21" Philips monitor! My next box this year will be an AMD - FX 53 or 55 and be liquid cooled. I will keep you posted. ... depends on the wife too, she may freak out.
