I have windows xp. I broke my cd-writer cleaning it. Replaced it with one from a friend, no software, went to LG Electronics website, this version not available for download, so downloaded next one up, will not work. CD writer not listed under device manager.
On top of all that, my dvd-rom (compaq 5000) pc, gives me this error message if I attempt to use it. 'request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. Thought i had loosened cable when replacing cd-writer, went back in and made secure cable. Still won't work.
What have I done and can anyone help with my device problem and my software problem? I am about pulling my hair out.
