Hi folks,

I have a cdrom problem that I was hoping for some insight on.  I installed
a new piece of software, and subsequently had problems with my cdrom
(seemed to have trouble reading).  Eventually the CDROM quit... won't even
spin up.   I unloaded the software, removed and reinstalled the CDROM (both
physically and in software) and still it does not work.  Windows 98
recognizes it, and loads a driver for it, but the CDROM is unusable.
Normally, I would think the drive bit the dust.  However it seemed very
coincidental that all this started right after (within minutes) the loading
of a program.

I know cdrom's are cheap, so I'll probably pick one up and try it.
However, I am worried that the OS is hosed.  Will reloading win98 over top
of itself cause any problems.

Any insight greatly appreciated,

Scott
