Had a CDRW drive failure a few weeks back, took me ages to track it down (not really PC myself) changed the drive and it worked fine. If you want seriously good priced PC bits try Overclockers.co.uk just bought all the bits for a super whizzo PC from them with a nice big LCD screen. Put it all together with 1gb ram and 300gb hd, made the stupid mistake of loading Windows xp pro x64 edition which doesn't support hardware using 32bit drivers. Will be really great when the manufacturers get forced to add 64 bit dxrivers to their packages but I can't wait for that to happen as my Broadband modem won't work on it. Oh dear, back to the drawing board.......anybody got a copy of xp professional for sale cheep cheep

What sort of modem is it Paul? I presume it's a internal one as both a USB plug-in and external ethernet (network cable) type are OS independant...

BTW, I can recommend PC World's "Components" section where they sell a lot of brown box oem stuff. £19.99 for a dual-layer 16x DVD writer is quite a bargain!

Intel AnyPoint DSL Modem 3240, I'm told by BT that the drivers for it aren't available to run on the 64 bit OS ?
