hsehestedt, thanks for the help anyway, but I have decided to let it go. Unless you can come up with something, I'll just let it go. It's really no big deal. I mean I don't have to look at it all day...

It's more of a cosmetic issue than anything else. I just messed up with that Outlook.com mail address. I'm not sure how to post a screen shot. I'd rather not show the address anyway. Yes I would...

hsehestedt, when I go to your Microsoft link, I get something totally different. I can't sit here and explain it to make any sense though. I am not sure how to proceed. Something tells me that I need...

Windows 10 Home. Windows version 20H2. I had a brainstorm of an idea to make an Outlook mail account. After I made it I realized it was a bad idea. I hate the account name. It irks me bad. So I go to...

Please excuse me for being like a rookie when it comes to pc's and following instructions. Yes I turned off the slider to allow me to remove pin. But I have not done it yet. I really just wanted to...

I have a Windows 10 Home pc. I recently got this pc (my second) back from shop. Of course on setup you have to put in a pin number, which I did. And every time you boot Windows you have to put in the...

Everyday I get the BSoD at some time or another. The only info I can say is that it says Kmode Exception Not Handled. I have been looking on the internet, but I have read that this error is for...

EdTittle thanks for the response. Can you tell me a little more about the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit? I have it downloaded, but not sure where they are supposed to go. Which directory? Or...

I don't really understand that Berton. To me the file should have been found in the registry. Strange and interesting. Even when doing all the online searching it would seem that I could download the...

swarfega, it was in my first post. Yes I ran sfc /scannow, but there were no problems to be found.

Hi Berton.Yes my System32 does have autoplay.dll. Just for the heck of it, can you check your Registry for autorun.dll. From what I gather, autorun.dll is part of Windows OS. Could it be hidden? To...

First of all I am having some trouble with my pc again. I keep getting errors and it says my computer needs to restart. One is system service exception and another is kmode exception not handled. I...

I used to think that all my data burns had to be on cd-rw disks. Now I am glad and eager to just use my cd-r's. So long. E1957

I don't have a dvd player yet. I just tested a few older cd-rw's and found one didn't work. It was a Memorex dated back to Oct. of '08. I didn't find any more bad disks. However, like someone here...

MisterEd, I honestly didn't think to save my Bookmarks to an HTML. They would have been safe there and in my documents. After spending some time surfing the Web looking for Bookmarks I finally had...

MisterEd, I fixed my pc by doing a PC Reset. Yes I made it into the Bios no problem, but I really didn't know what to do there. The Bios is a little over my head anyway. So I found out I could use...

MisterEd, Now that I have had time to think about it, I am sure my pc is screwed up. I have other problems besides the cd-rom drive. I won't go into it now, but it has been this way for weeks.
...

MisterEd, It looks like I will have to reinstall the OS. I did what you told me about some of the other fixes, but they didn't help. And besides, I don't know how many years I have gone without...

CD-ROM drive will not read cd-r or cd-rw disks with data on them. I have some recent Tao-Yuden (sp) Silver laquer (sp again) coated cd-r disks. So high performance with those. Yes all my cd-rw's are...

Who ever this reply is for. I have used Imation, NEC, Sony and Verbatim cd-rw's. I have never had to format for them to burn data to. Can we please move on from disks good or bad. The facts are...

I have another pc, but it doesn't work right now. I really don't feel like bothering taking the disk to library or shop. I don't understand it. Anyway the new rom drive didn't make any difference in...

Yes I can burn and play cd-r disks. I can also burn cd-rw disks using a Program called CDBurnerXP. Good software. I don't know it it will burn or play dvd disks because I don't have any dvd's to use....

A Gold Member helped me find this post again. I thought I lost it. Thank you.

Okay. So not all cds or in my case cd-rw's are created equal. Also not all of my cd-rw's are bad if even one.

I...

Windows 10 Home. Honestly I posted at Windows Forum several days ago, but can't find post to continue posting to.

Anyway, as some of you may remember I couldn't get my rom drive to read cd-rw's....

sygnus. Yeah I can burn a cd-rw disk using a Program CDBurnerXP. The XP part of it is old, but the program works great. You can do many things with it, dvd's included. You might check it out on the...
