My cousin who was paralized in an accident has an acer aspire 5610 the same as mine but i am running xp on it and he is running vista.
The dvd drive just stopped working and does not show up any more in the computer.
When i go into systems>device manager and go properties on the DVD drive it says the driver for the actual drive isnt working properly.
so
a) i re installed the vista chip set for it
b) flashed the bios with the 3.50 version for windows vista
it still did the same! i even tried to search on the internet for more recent drivers but it says its up to date?
has anyone got any ideas on this problem is it a vista problem?
short of re formating the hard drive and re installing windows vista 32 i have no idea what to do?
maybe run a windows vista recovery disk?
