A slow burning death [ Rants ]
Garggh, my HP CDRW/DVDROM drive is dying. I bought it less than a year ago, and it's always been a little flaky - burning coasters every now and then, locking up intermittently - but nothing too critical. Now Win2K is spewing device errors on the CDROM0 device and the machine's rebooting itself every 2 to 4 hours.
Should've just bought a Plextor to begin with. Ah well, I can try to RMA or trash the HP 9900 drive and use my once-and-future-video-card money from Christmas to get a Plextor PX-320A instead.
