The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
When I put a cd into the drive, it attempts to speed up, then stops a few times, before finally giving up. Device manager says everything is fine.
I have uninstalled the driver, and reinstalled it to no effect. I have blindly followed the directions on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060 and removed the upper and lower filters in the registry.
I'm kind of at a loss here. Also, I think it is screwing with me. I put in a PS2 cd I had lying around, and that worked.
