on the 19th of october last year I got a laptop from bestbuy. it works fine. all of a sudden my dvd drive won't let me burn dvd's. I formatted and recovereed it. After taking care of that I installed dvd decrypter and now it won't even rip a movie. so now i'm looking for another drive. comp usa says they are 300 to 600 bucks for the part but they don't sell them. I was wondering where I could find one a little cheaper. I have a gateway mx3422. please help. I paid 900 for the laptop and i'm not gonna get a $600 drive.

External ~ $60 and up. Replacement (substitute) 'slim type' $60 or so. Look them up at NewEgg.

The 'slim' ones are all laptop drives.
