Hi,

it started opening and closing and the busy light was
on when i started to get into windows so i restarted and it did the same thing so went into bios and left it
for 10 minutes and it was ok so removed the drive and did a virus scan which was ok went into device manager
and removed it also changed cable and restarted and

Yeah its an artec wrr 4048
I think you're right
I've just checked on www.ebuyer.com
and theres a Pioneer 8x DVD DUAL R/RW
IDE Burner for £57.95 inc vat and delivery
which i think i'll get.
I've never checked prices online before
how long has it been this cheap?

I'm across the pond and thus not so familiar with prices there .... but yes, the new 8X burners have been cheaper than expected
