    Talking Dell Inspiron DVD freezes everything.

    I have a dell lap top coming in on Tuesday & want some feedback on it before it gets here. I will tell as much as I know right now it is a Dell Inspiron about one year old, the caller said any time she puts in a cd or dvd the whole system freezes. I am working today (Sunday) because computers are tax free this weekend in Tennessee. Thanks for your posts in advance.
    CHEERS!

    sounds like a semi dead drive.... or possibly all the cds / dvds are scratched to bits, or the unit is filthy.
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

    I would likely lean towards a flakey drive
    Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
    AMD FX 8350 4ghz OCTO-Core
    Windows 8.1 PRO 64
    Adata 256 gig SSD
    Kingston HyperX 1600 16 Gigs
    Sapphire R9 280 2gig
    Enermax Liberty Modular 620
