Re: CD/DVD Combo failure

Hi,
The test I wish for you to perform does not require you to boot the PC to Windows
If you boot up the PC with the test disc in your CD-Rom the test will run. They do not require Windows or any other OS to run.
If you are able to access the BIOS and the PC does POST these test will work.

I am thinking you have a Hardware issue somewhere. This maybe why the recovery CD is failing.
What happened that caused this issue to begin with?
Did you have a Virus/BSOD or other issues?

Thanks,
Bill
